------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-08 17:30 ------- Yes, I meant update to the latest dhcp-client, but you need "dhcp-client-3.0-2pl2.5mdk.i586.rpm" from a cooker mirror. This is the fix. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: When I upgraded to 9.1beta from 9.0, XFree86 (I think) began blanking teh screen on me at intervals which seem random. It goes blank for less than a second, more than once a minute. When 9.1rc1 came out, I upgraded but the problem remained - had to reformat / and /usr, if that matters. I *had* to reformat, because tehre was no "upgrade or upgrade packages only" option, like there was when I upgraded from 8.2 to 9.0. When 9.1rc2 came out I upgraded again but the problem remained, and, even worse, now I have no Inet connection on that box. I load the Control Center and click Network and Internet and it's still configured for my DFE-530TX NIC (which uses the 8139too alias). I click Connect and it says "connecting to the internet ..." but then it says "connection failed." I can boot [Ugh!] Win98 and there is no problem. I can open a konsole window and I can ping 12.223.2.8 or 12.223.2.9 just fine, but I can't ping insightbb.com. That's odd because 12.223.2.8&9 are the IPs insight uses to register NICs with their service. In fact I can type 12.223.2.8 in a konqueror window and I get the standard "You are currently subscribed to insightBB.com. Your account is active". Of course insight's "tech support" is useless, as they say they don't support linux, and indeed, I can GET connected just fine running Winduhs. I am at a loss. HELP!!!!
