My mobo has an onboard RealTek 8169 chip (Gigabit network) - the correct driver is loaded - r8169.
Knoppix 3.4 (both 2004-05-10 and 2004-05-17) - installed to hard disk
"find" 2 ports - eth0 and eth1
From what I read in the forums, and from answers to my previous networking help posts, I managed to get Knoppix 3.4 (2004-05-10 - kernel 2.6) to connect to the net on eth1 (even though it doesn't physically exist).
I have now installed to hard disk Knoppix 3.4 (2004-05-17- kernel 2.6) and have, by setting my /etc/network settings to static addresses on eth1.
managed to ping an IP address as root, but cannot ping a URL or connect via browser, either as root or user.
It appears that there is a problem resolving URL's.
Also, I believe that there must be a conflict between pump and my network configuration.
How do I stop pump running on boot?
My setup is a router/modem -> Ethernet switch -> PC
The network IPs are relative to the Ethernet Switch port into which the PC is plugged. I would therefore rather not set the PC's IP statically, and should not have to. DHCP should work (it does with Fedora and Xandros and when booting from the Knoppix Live CD.
/etc/network/interfaces
auto lo eth1
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.1.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.254
/etc/resolve.conf
nameserver 192.168.1.254
