Debian upgrade problem
 

I installed Debian/GNU 3.0 woody and it all worked perfectly. I recently updated to sid and also updated to KDE 3.2.2 and when it boots up and does the hardware detection, it comes up with eth0..... failed. I can still connect to the internet but only by using Connect to the internet. Also my firewall doesnt work either. The firewall I am using is firestarter. Any help to fix these 2 problems will be great

Thanx.

have you compiled a custom kernel??

No its the same kernel 2.4.24

you need to make sure your network card driver is loaded. type "lspci", and scan the list to find your network card. do a google search for the name of the Linux driver module for the name you found in the list. then add that to the "/etc/modules" configuration file. that will birth that network connection right out on boot from now on.

or:

#modconf

and look for your driver under 'net', reboot.

Thanx but what about my firewall?

Reconfigure your firewall.
