can you try booting with acpi=off ?
I've tried to boot with 'acpi=off', but this doesn't solve the problem.
Update to the latest rp-ppp package from devel (or C3-test1) directory (rp-pppoe-3.5-15.i386.rpm) then it will work again.
this got fixed in updates ?
mass update for old bugs: Is this still a problem with the 2.6.9 based update kernel ?
Fedora Core 2 has now reached end of life, and no further updates will be provided by Red Hat. The Fedora legacy project will be producing further kernel updates for security problems only. If this bug has not been fixed in the latest Fedora Core 2 update kernel, please try to reproduce it under Fedora Core 3, and reopen if necessary, changing the product version accordingly. Thank you.
