I'm running Woody on a Dell Inspiron 8000 - I have a cable Internet
connection through a D-Link DFE-650 PCMCIA card. The connection worked fine
until I installed kernel 2.4.7 - now it doesn't work at all. It took some
messing around to get it to work initially, so I've become somewhat
familiar with dhcp and pcmcia - everything appears to be configured
properly (the way it was when it worked with the older kernel), but I get
no Internet.
I think that both pcmcia and the DFE-650 are working properly, since I get
2 muted beeps on startup (they were a lot louder with the older kernel, but
they're still there now), and the "Ln/Act" light comes on on the dongle.
Also, eth0 shows up fine when I do "ifconfig."
I'm confused because everything appears to be set-up and working properly.
Is it possible that I omitted something in the kernel configuration? Is
there something else that I should be looking at?
Thanks in advance,
Noah
