I'm not sure network-manager is the way to go. When enabled it makes just
the configuration a nightmare because standard configuration file are
either ignored or replaced. When I'm on a machine with network-manager
trying to debug network problems, it is usually the first thing I disable.

However I have no better solution to offer as I've never setup pppoe
connections.
