Ok. The device is changed to eth1 now, because I installed a linksys card to see if that had anything to do with it. It is supported by the tulip module just fine. All the playing around I've done, I have definitely ruled out a hardware problem. The lights to start to blink when I try to connect, so it is some connectivity error, I just can't imagine what since it works with 2.4.20. I didn't remove or add anything in networking for fear of never connecting again, so could it be just some difference in the 2 kernels that I don't know about causing this?

Someone with a bit of knowledge on PPP should chime in sometime soon, I'm not too hot on the ins and outs of PPP.
Cool |
Man, I hope so. I haven't been online with Slack since Friday. I've defnitely become acustomed to using linux and hate to have to boot to windows now.
Thanks for trying! |
C'mon. Where are all the ppp guru's @?
I'm making some hard drive space to install mdk 9.1 again so I can compare some of it's files with the ones in Slack (like the adsl-startup script). Maybe I will see something. |
Good idea ;)
Have you checked your system logger frequently? After each progessive move to get your network up, see what the logs say, then compare those as well. Cool |
Its fixed :D
I don't know how though. I just re-installed and compiled the new kernel for the 10th time since friday and it works. I am using the Linksys card which may or may not have something to do with it. Now I have the internet AND the performance I need :) I estimate around 40 hrs spent on this one problem since Friday, and thats not including the week I spent discovering and solving the hard drive issue but DAMN it feels good to win! Slackware is worth it I think. All those reinstalls and kernel compiles taught me a lot anyway. Thanks for giving it a shot MasterC ! |
