[SLUG] Problem with ppp

[Jobst Schmalenbach <jobst@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!

I have a problem with ppp (rp-pppoe-3.8-1).
I have been running rp-ppoe for years, never had problems, now I have on 1 machine.


Upon booting I see the following in the syslog:

  Apr  4 09:46:35 piquet syslogd 1.4.2: restart.
  Apr  4 09:46:35 piquet pppoe[1887]: PPP session is 5943 (0x1737)    <=======OUCH!

Right there "<=======OUCH" pppoe is already starting, it shouldnt cause *NOTHING* 
else is up at that time, even the DAC960 is loaded later, neither are the
ETHX based drivers.


I want rp-ppoe start after the other ETHX cards are up, how do I do that???
