Hi list, I`ve just installed a brand new gentoo amd64 and there is this problem: my "Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 06)" is recognized as *sit0* , but I can't get any IP Adress.
dhcp takes long and doesn't get any result. dhcpcd doesn't work either. Even if I choose a manual address I cant ping other devices. When I used ifconfig, I got something like "ipv6 over ipv4", but I will only need ipv4. So I disabled ipv6 USE flag, but I didn't change anything. The weird thing is that if I disable the IPV6 kernel support (manual configuration btw), the network interface (sit0) desappears! When I reboot the system using a usb botable Ubuntu everything works fine, using the same hardware/infrastructure. I have no idea what is going on here, so, please, send me some links. Thank you all, -- João Neto Linux User #461527 http://br.linkedin.com/pub/jo%C3%A3o-de-matos/7/316/552
