I am running Gentoo on a Sager NP5560 and am having a nightmare getting |
| 2 |
the networking to work right. I finally have the Intel 2915ABG card |
| 3 |
working just fine, but I cannot seem to get the Ethernet to work at all. |
| 4 |
I have configured it for DHCP and it will not get an address. I have |
| 5 |
other systems on the same network that get DHCP addresses just fine |
| 6 |
(WinXP and Suse Linux). Here are some specs: |

Kernel: 2.6.20.1 |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Gentoo Linux |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Ethernet card: Realtek card using r8169 module |
| 15 |

Any ideas? The /etc/conf.d/net file is very basic. All is has is |
| 19 |
config_eth1=("dhcp") then the wireless stuff. I could get eth1 to work |
| 20 |
if I manually assigned an address, but now that doesn't work either. |
| 21 |
Any help is appreciated. |
