Re: [gentoo-user] Need help with eth0 on new computer
It looks from the ebuild that net-misc/e100 was intended for 2.4.x series kernels (*.o as opposed to *.ko). I would suggest running 'makemenuconfig' or similar and enabling e100 as a module from within thekernel tree. I don't think that he built net-misc/e100... I think his module just didn't autoload. Did I miss something?

It's probably some kernel setting or something that is trying to throw you into ipv6. I use the "-ipv6" use flag to disable ipv6 across the board and disable in the kernel config. If you do the same (you'll need to rebuild everything tho :-( it will probably clean itself up and the card will come up fine. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

If so, did you include support for this card on it? This seems to be the EtherExpressPro/100, right? The relevant configuration on the kernel is either CONFIG_EEPRO100 or CONFIG_E100.Check that you have either built it into the kernel or as a module.

[gentoo-user] Need help with eth0 on new computer
I got a new computer yesterday. As I was installing Gentoo on it, I ran into a problem. I've got the basic install set up, but my eth0 won't start. It would with the liveCD. When I boot up with the live CD and run: dmesg | grep 'eth0" it gives me this output: e100: eth0: e100_probe: addr 0xff91, irq 20, MAC addr 00:13:20:2B:98:18 e100: eth0: e100_watchdog: link up, 100 Mbps, full-duplex eth0: no IPv6 routers present However, when I reboot into my installed environment and run the same command, there's no mention of 'eth0'. I tried emerging net-misc/e100 (I thought it might help), but the build failed. Something about too many parameters being passed to a method. Is there anything I can do to resolve this other than filing a bug report? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
