| Need help tweaking my /etc/conf.d/net...(SOLVED) Hello all,
I seem to be having a bit of difficulty getting my settings right. Okay, here's the background.
I have a Dell Inspiron 600M with the Broadcom 57xx ethernet card, and the Intel PRO2200 b/g miniPCI wireless card. I connect to the internet at home via the Linksys WRT54G wireless router, which also has 4 ethernet ports. Now, I installed everything properly and everything works properly (sort of). Now I'm sure that you're probably wondering (so what's the problem), well here goes.
Whenever I boot with my ethernet cable plugged in everything is a okay, but when I boot without my ethernet cable plugged in I get this: Code: * Bringing up eth0
* dhcp
* Running dhcpcd... [!!]
* ERROR: Problem starting needed services.
* "netmount" was not started.
* ERROR: Problem starting needed services.
* "ntp-client" was not started.
* ERROR: Problem starting needed services.
* "sshd" was not started.
...Now, just so you know my ethernet is seen as "eth0", and my wireless is seen as "eth1". So after my system finishes booting I can only get an internet connection(wirelessly) by typing this: ...and presto I'm connected, so what I would like to accomplish is for my system to acknowledge my wireless card when I don't have my ethernet cable plugged in automatically.
I've already looked high and low for an answer, and I have posted several posts on the Gentoo forums but to no avail, so I figured I would try my luck here. Hopefully someone here can point me in the right direction, any suggestions..... |
