When I booted this CD in the live configuration, all was well (except the audio, but I'm not really worried about that right now). I then installed on an extra partition and it all installed fine (except for the audio) but now, I can't pull an IP and keep it any longer than a few seconds. When I tail -f /var/log/messages, here is what I see, over and over: May 16 07:10:58 localhost NetworkManager: <info> Activation (eth0) Stage 2 of 5 (Device Configure) scheduled...

Version 0.60. from Network manager nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller from modules forcedeth 58577 0 - Live 0xffffffff88165000 release Fedora release 6.93 (Rawhide) Obviously, the card is detected and utilized so it can't be a hardware or driver issue, right? I also have an Ubuntu 7.04 partition and a Windows XP partition that I boot and the hardware (including audio) all works fine in those OSs. Has anybody else seen this? I looked through Bugzilla but didn't see anything like this. What is really confusing is that eth0 is fine and works flawlessly when I boot from the CD but not after I installed the OS. -- Casey Stamper
