i cant get online with my linux machine !!!
ok...
when i boot up and go into verbose mode i get this
Code:
Bringing up interface eth0:
Determining IP Information for eth0... failed
when it says "Bringing up interface eth0:" it just sits there for about 3 minuts.
it then moves on to say the other thing, does some other stuff and boots like normal.
i use a linksys wireless card named eth1. it works through linuxant driverloader. when i start the prog it connects to the network (supposedly) and looks to be acting normaly. when i open a browser i cant get to any sites, i can't download anything, and can't even get updates and stuff though urpmi.
i can, however, connect to the network and get to the router settings. when i checked it everything was fine. ive tried to get on my syster's comp (with windoze) and it worked just perfectly.
what do i do...? It used to work just fine...
I'm running mandrake 10.1 on an averatec 3150 laptop. I know very little in the way of linux so please speak in terms that a newb would understand.
