You shouldn't use your own shell scripts. Use /etc/ifconfig.pppoe and
/etc/ppp/ip-up and /etc/ip-down scripts to avoid some trouble.

Also you must not assign the rtk0 device an IP address.

Please read http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/network/pppoe/. This
great documentation should solve all your problems.

You have to enable amp in the kernel. Uncomment the following line in
your kernelconfig and recompile it.
#apm0 at mainbus0  # Advanced power management

With apmd enabled you can use 'apm -z'

/usr/pkgsrc/graphics/gimp

/usr/pkgsrc/www/bluefish

But it isn't new.
