This is just the inernal loopback device, not eth0. Try 'ifconfig -a' |
| 13 |
and see if your system even knows about your eth0 interface. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
If it's not listed by 'ifconfig -a', you need to load the right kernel |
| 16 |
module to get it there. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
If it's listed but not up, a command like 'ifconfig eth0 up 10.0.0.100' |
| 19 |
and 'route add default 10.0.0.1' may do for now. |

I use 'media-sound/mpd' which is a mp3/ogg playing daemon (server), then |
| 28 |
one of the front-ends (media-sound/ncmpc is a good console client) to |
| 29 |
set up your playlist. http://www.musicpd.org for more info and a list |
| 30 |
of other frontends. |
