I've been busy, so I've only skimmed the LUAU messages. I believe you've tried various device drivers, and distributions without luck. But you didn't mention the actual steps you've performed. Without which, it's hard to guess at the problem. But I do remember you mentioning that you're using RoadRunner. My suggestion is to manually run dhcpcd and enable as much debug information as possible. Then look through the debug information to determine whether dhcpcd successfully obtained an IP address and configured the host networking stack. If dhcpcd succeeds, then try to ping the gateway. You can find out the gateway IP number by looking into /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.info. If dhcpcd fails, then you need to figure out why. If would help if you describe the steps you took to setup your network configuration. I.e. it would help if you used script/enscript to capture everything at the console and email it to us. The alternative is to bring your system to HOSEF tomorrow. I'm sure someone there would be able to help you. Unfortunately, I'll be busy tomorrow, so I can't be there. --jc -- Jimen Ching (WH6BRR) [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
