I've checked router configuration, and seems to be ok! even If I
restart my router I get the same issue!
I checked: no mac is associated with ips!
I've tried different Ip addresses but nothing, I've checked
/etc/resolv.conf they are Identical in both oses!
When I assign the static IP address to my second os and I start it I
don't receive any error messages:

Everything seems to be ok but I sill can't connect to the internet!
I've two Macintosh too in my home net with static ip addresses assigned 
(both working!) and I usually use Samba to comunicate beetween them and 
my gentoo box. When i'm using static IP on my gentoo box it becomes no 
more available on the net, but I can connect from it to the other cmptrs 
using Ftp!
I'm really getting mad.....

Thanks for your help
