I trashed my system and reinstalled SUSE 10.0 from the
CD's. After a (mostly) successful installation, I can no
longer connect to the Internet.
I see no eth0, although I am certain, I had it before the
reinstallation.
I have a cable modem connected to a linksys router which
connects two computers, one is Linux only, the other
Windows only. The Windows machine connects to the
Internet fine.
My feeling is this is a basic problem since I had no
Internet problem with my previous SUSE installation from
the same set of CDs.
I have reset both modem and router and rebooted the Linux
box. I removed the modem from the router, reset the
modem, and connected directly to the Linux system -- no
change.
Since I cannot connect the Linux system, it's hard to show
the output of various network commands, but I will give as
much information as you guys may need. To start:
ifconfig shows eth1 and lo only.
eth1 shows an Ethernet card.
inet shows addr:192.168.1.102. Zero errors are shown.
resolv.conf is empty.
lspci shows SiS devices on all eleven lines. One of the
lines is an Ethernet controller.
route again shows two eth1 lines, one lo line and
asterisks under Gateway.
I hope someone can help. I will provide any requested
info.
What card (chip) are you using for external traffic?
Probably you only need to load (modprobe) the module (such
as r8169) and configure the device with Yast.
Not sure what you mean, Eric, unless it's SiS900 which is
referenced throughout my /var/log/messages file. If not
the SiS900, how would I determine the chip?
And how do I modprobe? I did a man modprobe, but would not
know what to do with it.
I looked in Yast and DHCP is not configured, but I do not
know what to enter in the fields. In the past, this was all
done automatically.
Did you installed a completely clean OS or did you try to
rescue or fix the system?
First a clean install, which had the no Internet connection
problem. Later a "fix the system" from the CD.
Hoping you or someone else can give additional help.
Don
