I have just done an apt-get upgrade on my unstable system and it updated the 2.6.16-1 kernel package.
I rebooted and the system came back up but didnt find a network connection. As expected as I had to rebuild the driver for my card. However rebuilding the driver and inserting it didnt work. Even after copying it to the right place in /lib/modules/.... and running a depmod. So I ran an ifconfig and got a blank screen no info at all. So I tried ifup lo which gives me SIOCSIFADDR: No such device lo: Error While getting interface flags : No such device lo: Error While getting interface flags : No such device Failed to bring up lo but if i modify my /etc/network/interfaces to say eth0 is inet loopback. eth0 comes up fine. However i can not bring up my network card as it complains that the device doesnt exist despite the module inserting correctly. Help.
