Yesterday I downloaded the most recent kernel update for SuSE 9.3 for an AMD64 system. When I rebooted, my internet connection was dead. I have a feeling that this has happened before and I found an easy fix, but I'm not finding that now. Barring that, is there an easy way to downgrade to the old kernel? Hilary -- Hilary L.

Depends on how your Internet connection is established. Dial-up? DSL? Cable? ISDN? Smoke Signals? Well, I guess the last one is not likely. What does "/sbin/ifconfig" show? Bob

Never mind. Problem solved. I'm running a dual boot of SuSE 9.3 and 10.0 and I just forgot to copy the new boot files over to the SuSE 10.0 directory so the boot loader could find them and to update the SuSE 10.0 bootloader. I knew it was something simple. Hilary -- Hilary L. Hertzoff Young Adult Librarian Mamaroneck Public Library hhertzof@gmail.com

Lousy ping times, for one thing. The network protocol using homing pigeons for the physical layer works better, but has problems achieving full-duplex...
