Joeri, Can you please post the output from dmesg? And what does just plain ifconfig tell you?

I installed Debian Woody, and I upgraded to Sarge via FTP. Everything went fine, but I needed a kernel > 2.4.11 that supports my video card. I apt-got kernel-source-2.4.20, compiled the kernel, installed it and rebooted... Now, I dont have any network anymore... The card is a Realtek 8139, that I selected in the kernel. I even tried to use it as a module, but that didn't help neither. I see that the module is loaded, but it's all. I can do a "ping 127.0.0.1", but I cant ping other computers. When I do an "ifconfig eth0", I can see that my IP is good. It's really the card that isn't communicating. I see the small red light, but there's no traffic... What did I do wrong? Should I select other options in the kernel? Any HOWTO's that can help me? Anyone some other suggestions? I thank you all, Joeri. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
