Hello All,
I've recenly installed RedHat Linux 9 in my Celvin EasyPC from Fujitsu Siemens.
I've installed the minimal instalation. Video card, mouse, keyboard and
everithing was detected and configured properly (I could install the packages
in graphical mode). The problem came when I tried to ping another machine in
my home network, all packages were being lost, so I checked at the hub and at
the LINK led of the connector at the back of the box and both were off. But the
strange thing is that linux can bring up the NIC without any problem. I have
also a W98 installed at the same box and the NIC works fine with it. Could
anybody please shed some light on this?
Many thanks in advance,
Juan Luis Moyano
