Ciao, scusa se ti rispondo direttamente ma almeno in italiano ci capiamo meglio :) Anche io ho lo stesso problema, nel senso che ho sempre usato KDE ed ora sono passato a Gnome (ho installato Fedora proprio in questi giorni). Su www.gnome.org ho visto che esiste un programma integrato che si chiama gnome-ppp, suppongo sia quello che cerchi. Stasera se ho tempo lo provo anch'io. Se cerchi con Google (+gnome +ppp +configurazione) si trovano diversi siti che spiegano come si usa, per esempio ho notato http://www.divtlc.unimi.it/assist/gnome.html ma ce ne sono tanti altri. Spero di esserti stato utile.
