my internet works on one os and not the other
i have windows xp and suse 10.2 on seperate hardrives when i first install suse my internet worked fine i logged off and logged into windows then logged back into suse and now no internet
i am using a bt router through network cable i have an onboard netork card realtek rtl 8139 i have broadband light, internet light but no data light i look at the system info screen in suse and admittedly i am a newb at linux but fairly experienced in windows am currently doing mcdst exam any ideas anyone? |
this is what i got when i look at the start up log
and yet when i first installed it worked perfectly but when i logged off logged into windows to get my information from outlook to port it over and relogged back to suse nothing Setting up network interfaces: lo lo IP address: 127.0.0.1/8 done eth0 device: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

It is possible your Windows has got a static ip address configured, easy to check that in windows settings, which you should have no problem with.
2ndly, common (maybe not with bt) trick of ISP's is to lock the connection to a single MAC address. In windows it might be possible to change this, I know it certainly is in Linux. Hope this helps |
Does your router supply a DHCP service?
Post the output of "sudo /sbin/ifconfig" and the /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id-00:0c:76:52:7b:4f file. Also check the output of /sbin/lsmod Is the 8139too kernel module loaded? |
i have literally installed linux testerday so excuse me for being a dunderheed
but is this what you requested http://pastebin.com/m3101d07b im ok with windows commands but am completely lost in linux command prompts |
You have the kernel module loaded for the interface. Without that, you wouldn't get anywhere because the device wouldn't work at all. You didn't post the output of the other commands. You can cut & past from the konsole to your Linux Questions response.
for the ifcfg- file enter: sudo less /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id-00:0c:76:52:7b:4f This is the file that is produced when you run the yast2 network configuration. For the other one just enter: /sbin/ifconfig eth0 Note: if you haven't set up sudo ( running visudo to edit the /etc/sudoers file ) then you can enter "su -" and enter the root password instead of using sudo. Be careful because as root, you can destroy your system. |
ok my cousin suggested try umbuntu no different i still only have internet in windows only this time i didnt get internet when i first install linux
i think i have the results you ask for jschiwal eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0C:76:52:7B:4F inet6 addr: fe80::20c:76ff:fe52:7b4f/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Interrupt:19 Base address:0x6e00 eth0:avah Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0C:76:52:7B:4F inet addr:169.254.5.102 Bcast:169.254.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 Interrupt:19 Base address:0x6e00 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:18 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:18 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:1332 (1.3 KiB) TX bytes:1332 (1.3 KiB) bearing in mind i have to log out of windows after copying waht you write to a txt file then to my usb drive lol then log into linux and try it out then visa versa |

It does have an IP address. Can you ping your router or modem. Look in /etc/resolv.conf. Do you see your ISP's DNS addresses there? Your DHCP client should fill that in for you. Also, look at the output of "/sbin/route". This will show if you have a default gateway. Your DHCP client should set that for you as well. One thing you might try is "punting". Delete the network interface in the configuration and start over, reinstalling it. I'll do this sometimes in Windows as well. I don't use Ubunto, so I can't help much with specific Ubuntu config files or programs. Take a look in /etc/ and see if there is an /etc/sysconfig/network or /etc/sysconfig/networking/ directory. It may use a similar file. I was most interested in seeing if DHCP was indicated in the file. |
just so i understand when you say look in /etc/ that would be in the file system itself just like looking through the files in c drive in windows?
as i say im a complete newb to linux i know windows inside out and am trying to get my head round the conversion |
