Hi, I have a new Powerbook G4 12'' and I installed debian-linux (woody) on it. After recompiling the kernel (2.4.20-ben10) somehow the network-connection does not work. At startup I get the script whether I want to configure a new network-environment. When I am connected to the ethernet via dhcp-server and I am booting some 2.4.20-ben5 kernel which I downloaded, everything works fine. With the new kernel, I do not get any errormessages. Also the network-card seems to be recognized (Sun GEM). But if I do ifconfig, there is no ip-adress and no broadcast-adress.
Any parameter or option I forgot to set ? After the lines eth0: Sun GEM (PCI) ... etho: Found BCM5221 PHY it says GMAC: can't request IO source Is this connected to it ? Thanks for any help !
