Yes.  In fact even when I was using windows XP years back and I called
in for troubleshooting on it, the tech said "phew, you have windows
xp.. we don't even need that setup disk because it supports pppoe
directly".  (btw, it turned out they just didn't set the account up
right)

Later efforts with just Linux have worked just fine..

I'd be using Look right now, but I've got disgusting line noise issues
and Bell's gotta make repairs.. I figure staying with Sympatico would
be a good idea to push that along.  ;)

I have been using Look's DSL service on both XP and Linux, also using a
router, without any installation issue (or need for an installation CD).
Except that lately there has been a few issues with the stability of the DSL
service, but it seems resolved as we speak.
