I am running Gentoo on a Sager NP5560 and am having a nightmare getting
the networking to work right. I finally have the Intel 2915ABG card
working just fine, but I cannot seem to get the Ethernet to work at all.
I have configured it for DHCP and it will not get an address. I have
other systems on the same network that get DHCP addresses just fine
(WinXP and Suse Linux). Here are some specs:
Kernel: 2.6.20.1
Gentoo Linux
Ethernet card: Realtek card using r8169 module
Any ideas? The /etc/conf.d/net file is very basic. All is has is
config_eth1=("dhcp") then the wireless stuff. I could get eth1 to work
if I manually assigned an address, but now that doesn't work either.
Any help is appreciated.
