This sounds like a driver problem. A large bunch of network driver updates are pending for 2094. Give those a shot when it turns up in rawhide I tried updating the laptop to the 2.4.22-1.2110.nptl version of the kernel, which was current as of October 28th, and that didn't help... I'm experiencing the exact same problem with Fedora Core 1 (kernel 2.4.22-1.2115.nptl). I can also verify that Red Hat 9 worked fine for me. I have a Dell Inpiron 8100 with a Xircom ethernet/modem card. I asked for help from the sysadmin at school and after searching for a while, he found that running cardctl eject 0 then waiting for a little while and then running cardctl insert 0 would get the ethernet connection up and running. After he found this, I went to post a bug to bugzilla, but found this bug already entered. So, I'm adding the info here. More info: This doesn't seem to happen on my home network, but it does happen on the network at school...which seems really odd to me since I'm using DHCP in both places. Also, at school, I occasionally have to re-run the above commands again throughout the day. *shrugs* Oh, and I left off one of the commands above. After the two cardctl commands, I always have to run an 'ifup eth0'. More info: Bug 109616 is a duplicate of this bug and says that the bug can be worked around by removing 'rhgb' from the kernel parameters at boot. This workaround works for me as well. *** Bug 109616 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** fc1 = eol |
