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.
Ciao, P.
