Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
since about two weeks I have been fighting with networking problems on |
| 4 |
a laptop. It all started with a big sync & world update that gave me new |
| 5 |
udev-171-r5, wicd-1.7.1_pre20120127, tuxonice-sources-3.0.17, |
| 6 |
openrc-0.9.8.2, among other things (I'm mostly running stable). Symptoms |
| 7 |
are that I cannot even get wired _listed_ in wicd, and when connecting |
| 8 |
to various different wireless routers, the connection died quickly. The |
| 9 |
e1000e driver (for wired) apparently never detects when a cable is |
| 10 |
connected, and when trying it through /etc/init.d/net.eth0, dhcpcd times |
| 11 |
out when waiting for a carrier... I tried alternating kernels (tuxonice- |
| 12 |
and gentoo-sources, both older and new ones between 2.3.38-r1 and 3.2.1) |
| 13 |
and kernel configurations as well as downgrades of several suspect |
| 14 |
packages, without success. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Does that ring a bell with someone? Any advice how I can track down |
| 17 |
these problems? |

Cheers, |
