I don't believe that it is normal to power down the device when ifdown is run. So the device will still flash is traffic is sent to it.
i do not 'power down'. i just use 'ifdown eth0' in a script. also, now thinking about mentioning it, when i bring up thunderbird, there are double flashes, 3 to 4 more doubles, sometimes 5 of ethernet led on 2wire. out of curiousness, with fresh boot, no 'ifup', i tried as root, 'yum check-update' which returned, 'Temporary failure in name resolution')>Trying other mirror.' then, 'ping 111.11.11.1' received, 'connect: Network is unreachable' to me, this shows tbird is doing something to flash led. thanks for reply, bruno. open to more suggestions. -- tc,hago. g . in a free world without fences, who needs gates. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
