[PROBLEM]
We tried to get our ADSL connection running on our new Dracul IV, but when trying to connect using pptp, those lines appeared in /var/log/daemon
Mar 28 20:54:26 dracul pptp[2425]: anon warn[decaps_hdlc:pptp_gre.c:197]: short read (-1): Input/output error
Mar 28 20:54:26 dracul pptp[2425]: anon warn[decaps_hdlc:pptp_gre.c:209]: pppd may have shutdown, see pppd log

SOLUTION
ppp und gre support in kernel missing.
