FC6 on Dell Inspiron 6000 - Broadcom 440X Ethernet Card...

[Guillermo de Jesús Hoyos Rivera (gmail) <ghoyosr@xxxxxxxxx>]

 

    Hello Listers:

 

        I have just installed FC6 on my Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop.

 

        In the previous versions of FC I have never had problems for using my Ethernet card (a Broadcom 440X), and connecting to the network. However in this new version, when I try to activate the network interface I get the next error message:

 

Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A)

Set failed on eth0; No such device

Setting IP information for eth0... failed

 

        The problem is that eth0 is not a wireless card, but a wired one (10/100TX), and I have not arrived to figure out which could be the problem.

 

        I have not yet tried to configure my wireless card (a Intel ProWireless 2200 BG), but I will do it tomorrow.

 

        Does someone of you have any advice on how to solve this problem?

 

        Thanks in advance and best regards.
