mdemers883 Posted October 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 Well, I figured I'd update this thread so people would know what's going on. Last night before I installed mandrake 10 I went into my BIOS and turned off pnp os. After I finished the install I booted into mandrake and my connection worked just fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyspongebob Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 neither am I, I one of these on my motherboard... although, it is detected and eth0 is up, have you checked to make sure the wires are all good (and connected)? I'm running my system as a dual boot running GRUB. I have XP Pro and Mandrake 9.2 on this box. My connection works fine on XP so I know the hardware and cables are not the prob. I notice when Mandrake boots up it shows eth0 [FAILED] Mark <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have a Prostar desknote with PIII 1.0 Ghz and a SiS network card. Mandrake 9.2 could not run on the box. I ran Redhat 9.0 for awhile. Now I have Mandrake 10.0 on it. Though on the boot screen, Mandrake shows eth0 [FAILED], I have no problem connecting to my network and surfing the web at all. It is really strange. JT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
