 |
|
Hello,
I installed the via rhine driver(not as a module though) and now I can't access the internet. A module does NOT show up in the modules dir for net. What should I do? |

If you did not compile it as a module in the kernel config, then you will not have a module -- i.e. it's built INTO your kernel already. As for your net not working, you really need to give more details -- net.eth0 fails to start, dhcp seems to not be working, kernel is not recognizing my nic (i.e. you don't see any eth0 in dmesg for one), etc ...

| dhcp seems to not work. I made gentoo detect the card as a pci device and it did just fine. |

Can you post what kind of errors you are seeing -- specifically the errors themselves if possible?

I must be loosing my mind ... I am sure I just replied prior to your last post 
Anyways, what I originally said, was that I wasn't aware of the solution to missing dhcpcd myself, BUT I did run a cross another thread a day or so back with that exact same problem -- i.e. missing dhcpcd ... you might do a forum search to try and find it -- i.e. search for "missing dhcpcd" maybe. They may have a solution there already.

I guess I could ask ... do you have dhcpcd emerged? ... just thought I would double check, as you never know.

What a funny question as I didn't before. I was searching before and I forgot to emerge dhcpcd. I got the internet to work but I have to type in dhcpcd everytime on bootup. |

Oh, I missed this part ... to get net-setup on your system, you need to emerge livecd-tools.

 we posted at the same time ... OK, so now you have dhcpcd .. but still can't run /etc/init.d/net.eth0 ?? ... have you configured /etc/conf.d/net for dhcp?

Not sure I follow exactly what you are saying, but for dhcp you should have something like
| Code: | | dhcpcd_eth0="-Y -N" |
and not something like
| Code: | | iface_eth0="192.168.1.254 broadcast 192.168.1.255 netmask 255.255.255.0" |

Yea, that's right iface_eth0="dhcp", I completely missed seeing that line earlier -- think it's time for bed.
So you do or do not have dhcp working now? ... does /etc/init.d/net.eth0 work or not?

At this point, you have the same problem as this earlier dated thread. I could just repeat the same questions from it here, but that would wasteful. Please join the discussion on the other thread.
