[gentoo-user] network question...
Hello, I am in the process of installing Gentoo on my laptop (HP ze5185) and I=have a networking question. I had a great network connection with the l=iveCD, but now my network card isn't recognized / installed. When I do an 'ifconfig' all I see is the lo setting, not an eth0. At f=irst I thought that this was because I had compiled the wrong network dri=vers in the kernel, so I went back and changed it to the National Semicon=ductor one listed on the kernel config screen (the network card is Nation=al Semiconductor Corporation DP83815 (MacPhyter) Ethernet Controller. th=is is internal - not a pcmcia card). However after all this I am still u=nable to connect to the internet. Does anyone know what I might be doing=wrong? Thanks for any and all help!- Joe :)

Check the install instructions about setting up the net.eth0 file. You need to set up the file with your addresses and add it to the default runlevel.

If you are using modules .. modprobe natsemi else compile it into the kernel and reboot edit /etc/conf.d/net .. change the settings to reflect your setup execute: /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start if all goes well .. add net.eth0 to the default runlevel : execute: rc-update add net.eth0 default any other questions .. consult the docs .. this card works fine , I've got an HP laptop with the same built-in card On Tue, 2003-07-29 at 12:05, Joe wrote: Hello, I am in the process of installing Gentoo on my laptop (HP ze5185) and I= have a networking question.
