Run: "dmesg | grep eth" I was using the old thread because it's also about ethernet. Anyway, now I've started a new one as you say. With Knoppix 6.0, I ran `ifconfig -a' and got the following output: lo Link encap:Local Loopback LOOPBACK MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) "dmesg | grep eth" gives the folloing output: eth1394: eth0: IEEE-1394 IPv4 over 1394 Ethernet (fw-host0) What should we conclude?
