I set that variable and it does seem to stop the backgrounding, but |
| 28 |
I'm not given any more information than I was with backgrounding |
| 29 |
unless it connects. I could be wrong, but I thought I was getting |
| 30 |
more information before. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Incidentally, I am able to connect to the AP this morning. The next |
| 33 |
time I can't connect I'll try different channels as I do live in an |
| 34 |
apartment. |

For some reason, I don't seem to have DNS service although I am |
| 37 |
connected to the network and Internet. DNS comes from my Gentoo |
| 38 |
router (dnsmasq), and my other system connected to it is getting |
| 39 |
lookups just fine. I have added: |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
nameserver 192.168.0.1 |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
to /etc/resolv.conf and restarted net.ath0 to no avail. I suppose |
| 44 |
baselayout -1.13* could be causing this problem somehow. Downgrading |
| 45 |
back to a stable baselayout caused all kinds of errors to pop up in |
| 46 |
different places. I believe they were net.lo errors, so maybe they |
| 47 |
have to do with the net.lo symlink you noticed? |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
/etc/init.d/net.lo -> ../../lib64/rcscripts/sh/net.sh |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
I'd like to get back on a stable baselayout if possible. |
