Can Windows affect a dhcp cable modem?
Can Windows affect a dhcp cable modem on a dual boot system?
I used to have SUSE and Knoppix functioning fine on a dual boot system with Win 98. Then I had a virus in Win 98 despite having anti-virus software. I had to reinstall Win 98 and then reinstalled linux. Since then I can get on the net with Win 98 and not with linux. I have a COM 21 Modem and my ISP is Cable Wanadoo in the Netherlands. There is info about the Cable Wanadoo connection in Dutch here: http://double-l.nl/johan/lwanadoo.html and English here: http://home.wanadoo.nl/vwes/com21/intro.html My ethernet card configuration in Win 98 is shown above. Any thoughts how to make it go in knoppix? I've tried DHCP and static IPs. When I try to use pppoeconf it says I another pppoe process. How can I check for this and shut killall pppoe processes in knoppix? I tried killall pump and got "no process killed" back as reply? More info in heading "Network Card" (on linux-tag fuorum) and at thei url: http://www.linuxformat.co.uk/modules...me=phpBB_14&am p;file=index&action=viewtopic&topic=2829&forum=1&11 More info about my setup.

I think you should try with no static adresses. It doesn't work well with DHCP.

I am close to solving the problem. I am using static. I had to use the following commands:
ifconfig eth0 up mii-tool -F 10baseT-HD eth0 pppoeconf Problem at the moment is that I am in su or root mode. And the link has to be set each time. probably a permission thing! |
no link
when I come back and run mii-tools I ahve no link
mii-tool # eth0: 100mbit halfduplex no link Thanks for those who reply. |
