Hi!
I think I missed some informations, because I have a problem with kernel
2.6.21 an the network.
I use a IBM X30 Notebook with eth0 = e100 and wlan = airo.
I have a fedora 6 installation updated to version 7
When I start my notebook with the fc6 kernel 2.6.20 (doesn't matter which
subrelease) I have no problems to connect with the ethernet card or the wlan
card to my network with dhcp.
So... I reboot my machine with the fc7 kernel 2.6.21. It seems to work, but
neither my ethernet card nor my wlan card gets a connection!
The wlan card gets configured with iwconfig and the right parameters.
But on both interfaces ethernet and wlan I get no network connection.
No firewall and no selinux is activated!
Now the very interesting thing:
When I only reboot the machine an start it with the old fc6 kernel the network
still not work! It seems like "frozen". I have to poweroff the notebook and
start it again!
I know there is a new wireless-stack in kernel 2.6.21, but I don't understand,
why also my ethernet doesn't work!
What could it be?
Thank's!
