1 Hi,
2
3 I just had a system board replaced on my Thinkpad and now the ethernet
4 interface does not exist. The hardware test is fine...
5
6 whin I issue lspci, I get this:
7
8 02:01.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82540EP Gigabit Ethernet
9 Controller (Mobile) (rev 03)
10
11 I have the e1000 driver compiled in the kernel.
12
13 my /etc/conf.d/net file is this:
14
15 config_eth0=( "dhcp" )
16 modules=( "ifconfig" )
17 modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
18 wpa_supplicant_eth1="-Dwext"
19 config_ESSID=( "dhcp" )
20 dhcpcd_ESSID="-t 5"
21
22 and when I issue /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start, I get this:
23
24 # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
25 * Starting eth0
26 * Bringing up eth0
27 * dhcp
28 * network interface eth0 does not exist
29 * Please verify hardware or kernel module (driver)
30
31 What could be happening?
32 Does this interface support 100mb? or is it gigabit only?
33
34 Actually, I would love to find a gnome gui that my user can use to
35 manage both the eth0 and wireless eth1 interfaces. I have not found
36 working examples of this anywhere yet. any sugesstions?
37
38 Thanks
