I think that is a slight problem. Since you use a cable modem I assume =
you're with OnVol and the make is Toshiba Pcx2000 or Pcx2500. I had the =
same problem, Toshiba modems are not supported in linux and there are no =
drivers for them. I contacted Toshiba and told me that they do not offer =
support on their modems for Unix or Linux. However they also told me =
that it can work however through other means, which where too technical =
for me to understand since I am also a newbie in Linux!=20
Good Luck!=20
And if it works plz drop a line ;)

Subject: [LINUX.ORG.MT] linux beginner
hi all,
i am a beginner to linux. while we have linux servers running at work =
we dont get much chance ot mess with them, for obvious reasons that we =
all know.
i have installed RH8 on my pc at home on a partition of its own. hope =
i will find help from you guys. my aim is to switch to linux completely =
at home and perform better at work.
my first question:
i have cable internet at home. on booting up linux the system gets =
stuck on the "Bringing up interface eth0". The only way to go past it is =
to switch the cable modem off. I dont go much further though. from the =
system settings > network configuration i try to activate the device, =
after switching on the modem, but i am stuck there.
any help is very much appreciated
regards
joseph
