difficult to isolate problem - browser access to router has problems on on machine but not other
Hi, I've tried to run through all I can think of and am getting a bit stuck.
I have two machines running Debian (one a dual-core Pentium4 with i386,
the other a quad-core AMD64-X2 with amd64), both with built-in ethernet
cards.
The Pentium4 machine can access the browser interface of the adsl router
I use with no problems.
The AMD64 machine has recently taken to stalling after entering the
username and password for the adsl router's browser interface, and I've
tried downgrading recent package upgrades, and different kernels and
browsers without success.
However, the AMD64 machine booted with the sysrescuecd can access the
browser interface of the adsl router without problems.
The AMD64 machine has a built-in Realtek 8169 NIC.
debsums has so far been inconclusive at pointing to any corrupted files.
I've also swapped ports that the pc's use on the router without any
noticeable change, and have powered-down both the pc and router
completely to eliminate issues caused by power glitches.
Are there any browsers on Debian that support javascript without having
to run under the X window system?
Any other suggestions welcome.
