 |
|
Thanks in advance for any help I get.
I have a Dell Latitude D600 with a Dell wireless card that I'm trying to get automatically enabled at boot. This is the error I currently get at boot, and when I run /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start :
| Code: |
* Running preup function
* Configuring wireless network for eth0
* Scanning for access points
* Found "banana" at 00:06:25:F1:C2:4C (WEP required)
* Found "daisy" at 00:06:25:D9:DA:22 (WEP required)
* Connecting to "banana" (WEP enabled)...
[ ok ]
* eth0 connected to "banana" in managed mode
* on channel (WEP enabled)
* Bringing eth0 up via DHCP...
[ !! ]
**** /sbin/dhcpcd: already running
**** /sbin/dhcpcd: if not then delete /var/run/dhcpcd-eth0.pid
|
i can start dhcpcd manually after this, by typing as root:
and then all is as it should be.
any thoughts?? |
