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 sg 24988 0 pcmcia 28580 0 yenta_socket 21772 0 rsrc_nonstatic 10496 1 yenta_socket pcmcia_core 33040 3 pcmcia,yenta_socket,rsrc_nonstatic dmfe 16540 0 agpgart 26716 0 lp 9160 0 parport_pc 23236 1 parport 28872 2 lp,parport_pc psmouse 33288 0 and here for zenwalk gain w/o the sound bits nls_iso8859_1 3584 2 vfat 6912 2 fat 30236 1 vfat video 10372 0 thermal 7944 0 processor 16720 1 thermal fuse 24852 0 fan 2436 0 dmfe 11676 0 button 3472 0 ac via_agp 4736 1 agpgart 16332 1 via_agp ehci_hcd 19080 0 uhci_hcd 13708 0 tulip 35744 0 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.
