Bruno Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 Maybe post the file so we can check before you reboot: # cat /etc/modprobe.conf Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gauchoperezoso Posted January 12, 2005 Author Share Posted January 12, 2005 hmmm.it doesnt work i think.ill reboot one more time.i forgot to tell you that when starting it says bringing up interface eth1 failed.maybe that the problem.

Bruno Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 Please show me the file first: # cat /etc/modprobe.conf eth1 should now be the wireless . . . so not important is it fails . . . maybe you can disable the wireless in the BIOS ??We want eth0 to be successful . . because that should now be the ethernetcard . . . :DB) Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gauchoperezoso Posted January 12, 2005 Author Share Posted January 12, 2005 some progress.thanks to switching eth0 and eth1 now i dont have to remove any connection.it is really weird cuz i just have to go manage connections and choose eth0 which is ethernet and then it works.but during a start up both eth0 and eth1 fail.

And after setting it up now again and reboot one more time ??The file looks good !! ThanksAnyway it is time for me to stop . . . Barry, Adam or Ivan will take over . . . But remember if it keeps failing maybe you should revert the file to its old state . . . . or if you like it better this way . . just leave it and make notes for when you ever will have wireless connection and you maybe need to put it back ;) Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gauchoperezoso Posted January 12, 2005 Author Share Posted January 12, 2005 ok Bruno.ill remember that.thank you very much for today and see you tomorrow "track network card" is when i set up a new connection.one of the options.i dont even remember where exactly but i think it doesnt matter.

ross549 Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Gauchoperezoso.....Do you want to ever use the wireless on your laptop? You have been using the ethernet port the entire thread.....If not, there may be a way to disable the wireless portion entirely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teacher Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 I am confused as to how your wireless can be eth1? I spent most of last night playing with my new PC Los install. I was working on the wireless. I have an internal wireless which it recognized and it installed - but it was wlan0 and then I have a USB wireless which was wlan1 if I remember correctly. I need to spend some time today figuring out why it would not connect with the wireless but will have to do that tonight when home from work.

Bruno Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Hi GauchoI can not understand it why the settings are not saved after a reboot . . so I would like to see 2 files to begin with: # cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0# cat /etc/sysconfig/network Then, here is the plan: If it keeps forgetting it we will figure out what is needed to configure the connection on the commandline, after that we make a little script to run at boot so that we force your connection to be UP once the boot is finished. ( This solution will not win the beautycontest, but as long as it is effective I don't care )First you could try if this will do the trick: # ifconfig eth0 up If however that is not enough, try these ( you are using DHCP right ? ): # netconfig  -d eth0 --bootproto=dhcp --netmask=255.255.255.0# ifconfig eth0 up OR maybe just this one will be enough: # /etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart Anyway, how us what you get in the terminal from all those commands . . . and we will adapt them where needed Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gauchoperezoso Posted January 13, 2005 Author Share Posted January 13, 2005 HI Bruno first the two commands:[root@chello084010044003 guest]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0DEVICE=eth0BOOTPROTO=dhcpONBOOT=yesMETRIC=10MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=noNEEDHOSTNAME=yes[root@chello084010044003 guest]# cat /etc/sysconfig/networkNETWORKING=yes[root@chello084010044003 guest]#as for the others should i try them one by one and reboot every time?also i have a problem with downloaded distro.i checked if it was authenticity and then i burned it but not from the command line cuz it didnt work,so i used k3b.but when i reboot and insert it it doesnt work at all.any idea why?
