3.9 won't recognize my NIC -- 3.8.2 will -- what's up?
The networking chip in my Dell 2350 requires the b44 driver.
When using Knoppix from a 3.8.2 install it is recognized and I can surf the internet.
I installed the new Knoppix 3.9 and when I rebooted, my networking no longer functions.
Issuing a 'lsmod' command reveals that the b44 driver is loaded with a child module of 'mii'.
Has this problem been observed by anyone else?
Thanks, Bob
P.S. I'll try a 'netcardconfig' and an 'ifconfig' when I return home this evening.

Please give that a shot tonight. Perhaps the boot time cheat code, nodhcp, will be of some help.
