Why cant I get an internet connection

2002-08-18 Thread shaun bokowski
I what can I check to see whether internet connection is
messed up. I am on a laptop using debian 2.2 with woody
packages, connected to a dsl SMC baricade ip sharer,
connected to a dsl speed touch home , everything is ethernet,
using a pcmcia card -ethernet. How can I start dhcp, --is
what I am using and have configured. Everything was working
fine and then all of the sudden I can not get a ping on linux.
Have a windoes machine and it connects but not linux laptop.
Need help. Thanks for the information.

Check your interface config with "ifconfig".  Make sure you see eth0
with an IP address like this:

$ /sbin/ifconfig 
eth0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:A0:C9:BC:78:C9  
  inet addr:192.168.0.116  Bcast:192.168.0.255

  RX packets:11542 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0

  RX bytes:6769940 (6.4 MiB)  TX bytes:865474 (845.1 KiB)

loLink encap:Local Loopback

  UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1

If you don't see eth0, then you'll probably need to run dhcp to get
one.  I assume this since you mention DHCP.  You can run this using
either "pump" or "dhclient".  Try pump first, and if that doesn't
work, then try dhclient.  Verify the IP config with the ifconfig
command.  

Also, if you don't see eth0, perhaps it's not configured.  Make sure
your network cards is loaded.  You can check for the modules usling
"/sbin/lsmod".  You can also look in "/var/log/syslog"  (as root) for
indications that your network card has loaded properly.

This is a good start.  Let us know what happens.

ACPI X APM was:: suspend to disk on compaq 1200

2002-08-18 Thread Christian Lyra


Hi,

No way! maybe loading the kernel only could be faster, but what
about X, and all those blinky docks on my desktop? :-) Suspend to disk is
fast on my laptop.

But I'm at a crossroad know. I had to choose between acpi or
apm. If I choose ACPI I got temperature, battery status, correct shutdown,
but no suspend to disk. If I choose APM I got battery status, suspend to
disk, but no temperature and no shutdown (the machine reboot instead of
shutdown!).
I tried to configure lm_sensors to be able to get temperature, fan
speed, etc, but seems that the via686 is not well supported, and reports
inconsistent temperature (well at -69C my cpu must be frozen!).

Ugh, sorry about an empty mail message. I was meaning to ask if anyone has
a Compaq Presario 1600 laptop, or at least a Trident Cyberblade i1
videocard? I'm trying to get fb to work. My virtual consoles are
completely screwed when I add trident support to my 2.4.19 kernel. I am
hoping that enabling this will increase the resolution for tools like zgv.

Best regards,

Arjen Verweij

Choose ACPI and swsusp from http://sf.net/projects/swsusp

I had some Compaq Presario 1x00 laptop... my sister is using it now.
I used the "vesa" framebuffer - there was no trident framebuffer by then,
and the Xfree 4.2 graphics driver finally supports video overlay, so
DVDs can be watched.

I didn't get the extra mp3-player keys to work though :-(
Compaq was unwilling to give ANY information about this hardware...
(Additional keys on the keyboard have to be a company secret...)
I don't like compaq anymore, since... I guess their professional line is
much better, though...

Greetings,
Erich

I would... but swsusp doesnt like XFS (my filesystem!).

Thanks for replying, and yes I have the eth0 just like yours.
I know I have pump or dhcp install . How can I get it going ?
