Internet Connection in Zenwalk

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Recently I had a look at Zenwalk-4 distro which is slackware based with 
kernel-2.6.18.1. I kind of like what I see, however, I can't make it connect 
to the Internet.

On booting I get

Starting the Network
/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1:  /sbin/ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1:  /sbin/route add -net 127.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 lo
/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1:  /sbin/dhcpcd -d -t 60  eth0
dhcpcd: MAC address = 00:08:a1:9c:43:3a
dhcpcd[2211]: broadcasting DHCP_DISCOVER

dhcpcd[2211]: timed out waiting for a valid DHCP server response

Could it be a missing module?

Here is lsmod for my slackware-11 w/o the sound bits

ipv6                  206336  10

and here for zenwalk gain w/o the sound bits

tsdev                   3904  0 
evdev                   5504  0

doing /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 start
gives the same as on booting, sitting for a long time trying to connect 
unsuccessfully.

Suggestions much appreciated.
