Guest dernhelm Posted October 25, 2003 Report Share Posted October 25, 2003 I've had the weirdest problem since installing 9.2. During boot I get the message "Bringing up network eth0 [failed]" but when I log in to KDE or Gnome I can browse the net and my local network. I use a nat router and dhcp. It seems like the system isn't waiting long enough to receive an IP address from the router? The message is immediate. There is no wait while it looks for the dhcp server it just immedaitely fails. I guess since I still have network access this is more of an annoyance than anything. Any ideas? Is there some config file I can edit to get it to wait longer?

bvc Posted October 26, 2003 Report Share Posted October 26, 2003 If I try acpi=on in my grub config eth0 fails (completely....even after boot). If acpi=ht it works. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
