I can confirm that 4.8-STABLE as of  Mon Jun  9 04:43:55 CEST 2003
works fine. I'm using the same ppp.conf than yours, even the same
DSL provider (kamp-dsl).

Ugh, I was just planning to switch to 5.1-RELEASE and cvsup
to CURRENT. Now, I'm reluctant to do this for my DSL router
-STABLE box.

Thanks for the HEADSUP :-)

What does kldstat say?

This is what I have on -STABLE:

 1   30 0xc0100000 434cb4   kernel
 2    4 0xc10ca000 9000     netgraph.ko
 3    1 0xc10d7000 3000     ng_ether.ko
 4    1 0xc10dc000 5000     ng_pppoe.ko
 5    1 0xc10e2000 3000     ng_socket.ko
 6    1 0xc114a000 15000    linux.ko

Did you try to kldload any missing modules manually?
