Debian 5 Stable. System installed from KDE CD ISO. Graphic logon screen is stopeed by
# sysv-rc-conf kdm off So the system initially boot into plain text console. WiFi interface is eth1. According to # ifconfig it is up after boot. # iwconfig eth1 ESSID [essid name] key s:[WPAkey] mode Managed is working, eth1 connect with ESSID, but there is no IP assigned according to # ifconfig and no Access Point visible in # iwconfig output. So, next I am trying to obtain the IP manually: $ dhclient eth1 -s 192.168.1.1 But no success. After few medium-long tryings (DHCPDISCOVER?) it is falling to sleep. Under KDE with KNetworkManager everything works fine, I just need to provide a pass to open a KWallet. Please, how to establish a connection manually right in text console? -- С Уважением, Марк Гольдштейн Sincerely Yours' Mark Goldshtein -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-laptop-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
