[SOLVED] network prob after upgrading from 2.4 to 2.6 kernel

[essdeeay]

Hello

I've upgraded from the 2.4 kernel to the latest 2.6 gentoo kernel. But now I am unable to ping any address except my own and the loopback. I've checked and re-checked that I've included all the drivers from the 2.4 config, and even used genkernel to compile the kernel. I can't ping anywhere using the 2.6 kernel, but if I go back to 2.4 then all is ok. Is there anything obvious I've msised, or any suggestions to help figure out what the problem is?

Although I can't see any obvious errors, I've posted a portion of /var/log/messages showing a 2.6 boot: http://www.rowyerboat.com/syslog.txt

Thanks in advance for any help,
Steve

Check to see if your network interface is working and it has successfully joined the network.

Also, check the routing table

#route -n

and see if the proper gateway is available.

if not config your network manually. I think there is a proper section on it in the installation documentation.
