DHCP Not Working With Slack 10


My internet doesn't work when I set netconfig to DHCP but it works just fine when I use a static IP. I'm on a router so i would like to use DHCP. I know my DHCP server is working because that's what Windows XP uses and that's what I used to use with Slack 9.1. I have an Asus A7N8X Deluxe with 2 integrated cards (3com and nForce). I'm using the 3com card. Anyone know what's going on?

Have you tried manual dhcp?

as root, run

gsd:# dhcpcd ethX

where eth is your ethernet device and X is the number eth device. This is *basically* what netconfig does when set to dhcp.
