Hi all,
since about two weeks I have been fighting with networking problems on
a laptop. It all started with a big sync & world update that gave me new
udev-171-r5, wicd-1.7.1_pre20120127, tuxonice-sources-3.0.17,
openrc-0.9.8.2, among other things (I'm mostly running stable). Symptoms
are that I cannot even get wired _listed_ in wicd, and when connecting
to various different wireless routers, the connection died quickly. The
e1000e driver (for wired) apparently never detects when a cable is
connected, and when trying it through /etc/init.d/net.eth0, dhcpcd times
out when waiting for a carrier... I tried alternating kernels (tuxonice-
and gentoo-sources, both older and new ones between 2.3.38-r1 and 3.2.1)
and kernel configurations as well as downgrades of several suspect
packages, without success.
Does that ring a bell with someone? Any advice how I can track down
these problems?
Cheers,
Peter.
