Unfortunately I'm not at my friend's computer right now, but I'd
like to prepare a little for the next seance -- the last time, of
course, I failed. 
The reason I asked about the 2.4 kernel was that I somehow thought
PPPoE support must be compiled into the running kernel in order to
use it. But this is a different issue, right? After reading some
instructions I came to the conclusion that it's not needed -- what's
more, it could only complicate things even more. Is that correct?
On that computer, I've installed the [1]"Roaring Penguin" which
didn't work -- but there could've been many things wrong. I'm only
asking if the PPPoE support in the 2.4.16 really messes things up.
And is there another approach to this? 

Thanks,

andrej
