I just got done installing pure64 on my new box, kde3.3, mozilla, everything works smooth, except that I can't get on the internet, which is strange because I did a netinstall. During the install I was able to set up pppoe, and then that's how I downloaded the whole system. Let aptitude run all night basically.
Well, after a couple of reboots, it won't work anymore. More precisely after I do pon dsl-provider here is what ifconfig says. eth1 Lien encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:09:7C:9D:A5 adr inet6: fe80::211:9ff:fe7c:9da5/64 Scope:Lien UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:5256 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:2884 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 lg file transmission:1000 RX bytes:358232 (349.8 KiB) TX bytes:101777 (99.3 KiB) Interruption:10 Adresse de base:0x7000 lo Lien encap:Boucle locale inet adr:127.0.0.1 Masque:255.0.0.0 adr inet6: ::1/128 Scope:Hôte UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:678 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:678 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 lg file transmission:0 RX bytes:45068 (44.0 KiB) TX bytes:45068 (44.0 KiB) ppp0 Lien encap:Protocole Point-à-Point inet adr:83.113.225.163 P-t-P:193.253.160.3 Masque:255.255.255.255 UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1492 Metric:1 RX packets:7 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:3 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 lg file transmission:3 RX bytes:246 (246.0 b) TX bytes:54 (54.0 b) Here's what route gives Table de routage IP du noyau Destination Passerelle Genmask Indic Metric Ref Use Iface 193.253.160.3 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 default 193.253.160.3 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ppp0 Here's what ps aux | grep ppp gives root 13928 0.0 0.3 14984 1592 ?

For example ping www.google.com doesn't work. Also kmail and mozilla won't connect to anything.
