Most of you know my problem but I'll tell it again:
Ive got T-DSL it is ADSL from a company called t-online thats why T-DSL. And T-online comes frome German Telekom. So my problem is i would like to get a internet connection over Linux Mandrake 8.0 Linux kernel 2.2.4-16 or so i think ill write it later down! now the problem is that i really just started linux and wanted to learn things about linux in the internet but dont want to change between windows and Linux the whole time. So now i am a noob who nearly knows nothin about links and on adsl4linux.de didnt help me! i need a clear easy instruction for getting my connection up on linux. I searched neárly everywhere but didnt find anythin maybe svara can help who has the same hisself and write me an email with an instruction or so if he has time. anyway my e-mail is nor@gurudesign.de or you can contact me througgh ICQ or write under this topic. Please i need HELP!

I use tkpppoe by Roaring Penguin. It's a nice prog for ADSL internet connection. I've got TDSL too and it works just fine. The setup is quite easy you only need to get your ethernet working before.

there is nothing that is impossible in linux! you can extend it where/when you want!

Henning:
I remember SuSE advertising for their version 5.1 (7.3 or so is the current) with their easy ISDN setup. I suppose two or three years later (aka _now_) it should be rather easy standard stuff to set up ISDN...

I think it will even work with just loading the proper kernel module :/

There's lots of ISDN stuff (optionally) included in the Linux kernel...just run menuconfig or xconfig and you get whole sections of ISDN options for your kernel.

kagez: i guess he means configuring the isdn access itself, ie the password and that stuff.
and as a windows user he's missing the nice colourful thing that you click on and that tells you "You've got mail" (even though you don't) and makes a lot of funny noise. uh, did i mention it's really userfriendly?

R u sayin Windows users are stupid!
They are just smart, makin less thinking required by using a less time consuming, userfreindly GUI!
