I try the forcedeth driver and it still doesn't work. Checked dmesg and says forcedeth version .32 Onboard ethernet is RTL8201BL, I use a Linksys Etherfast USB 10/100 ethernet (uses Pegasis driver). That works fine and is autodetected. On reboot I get the following message: * Skipping already loaded module snd_als4000 setting up network...done. * /etc/network/options is deprecated. Setting up IP spoofing protection...done(rp_filter). Configuring network interfaces.../etc/network/interfaces: misplaced option if up: couldn't read interfaces file "/etc/network/interfaces" failed. Therefore, after the computer reboots after the initial installation I do not have networking support and cannot install the rest of the packages. My /etc/network/option file looks like: ip_forward=no spoofprotect=yes syncookies=no My /etc/network/interface file looks like this in the eth0 area: # They will be activated automatically by the hotplug system. mapping ^A , interface script grep map eth0 # The primary network interface allow hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.1.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 gateway 192.168.1.1 dns-nameservers 69.39.94.10 Thanks in advance. __________________________________ Yahoo!
