This is getting really frustrating. I've tried pump, dhcp-client, dhcpcd
(which
has worked on other computers for this connection) without any luck. I've
also attempted to add that line to /etc/pcmcia/network to make the card run
in promisc mode. No luck. Is there anything I can do about /etc/resolv.conf
?
I noticed that the other config files point to that yet there is nothing in
/etc/resolv.conf . That file is empty. Maybe that's the problem? I've tried
running all these clients manually and that hasn't helped anything either.
Is
there anyone here on a RoadRunner connection who has gotten their
Inspiron 8000 working with the Xircom CardBus Ethernet II 10/100? Could
this have something to do with RoadRunner itself? This Sunday I'll be moving
to one of my unversity's residence halls and will have an ethernet
connection
there. Maybe it'll work then, but I was hoping I would be able to setup
everything
on this new laptop for Linux before I left.
