Re: more info on dhcpcd problem



Ok let's take it from the top.

Boot your machine into X, forget the dhcp thing for now.

In a term window, su to root and run dhcp.  Then, highlight the text and go to
your email window.  Click the middle mouse button when you have the cursor
where you want the text -- bammo cut and paste X style.  No middle mouse?  Try
clicking both buttons at once.  Still no go?  When configuring X, it asks if
you want to "emulate three button mouse", tell it yes.

No X?  Install gpm it does the same thing for consoles.

You can pass args to modules in one of two ways:

insmod 3c509 io=0x300 irq=10

or

cd /etc/modutils
edit the aliases file
alias eth0 3c509
alias eth1 3c509

options eth0 io=0x300
options eth1 io=0x310

or something close.  When done, run update-modules as root.

It should not matter whether the device is up or not.
