That is interesting Catimimi, I've try the instructions but couldn't get it to 
work.  I made some modifications of my own and now it works fine.  I did not 
do the part about Yast (as this did nothing useful).  The few modifications I 
made were: edit the chap-secrets file, create an adsl file and a startup 
script including a shutdown of the usb module otherwise my system would hang 
(with flashing lights on the keyboard).  Nothing that I did was original, I 
just edited existing files or create files from existing documentation.
