Hi guys, Could someone help me out? I get a "network unreachable" whenever I try to connect on the network. I have a 3Com Etherlink card and I once had a network connection successfully connect to another computer but since my new installation I get this error. I tried to recompile my kernel so that I can make sure drivers for my card are available in the kernel but now the system hangs at boot time. I will just select one of the precompiled kernels again but how do I get a network connection? I think I have everything configured right.
The last time I got that error was because even though I had the kernel configured correctly for my network card (ne2000), the problem was with my cdrom card (I had a old mitsumi) The problem was that the CDcard would grab the irq the network card was using before it had a chance. Take a look at /var/log/boot.msg and it will tell you what drivers were loaded and if a Irq was used, which one it was. You may have to change a few numbers around to get everything to work correctly:-) -- cya l8r Leon McClatchey leonmcclatchey@homemail.com Linux User 78912 (Win95 Box) - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/ and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html
