2.15CE won't detect onboard enet ethernet chipset?

#1 Post by Tui »

Hi John Mc , how did you get your connection to the internet
working ? I have several versions of puppy on a single hard drive
and just loaded the v2.15ce but can't get it to find my onboard
enet chipset, in order that I might setup ip; gateway; and dns etc.
what do you think my trouble is?

Cheers :roll:

Try this:

1. Navigate to /etc/rc.d directory
2. Rename rc.network to rc.network.old
3. Rename rc.network.alt2 to rc.network

Reboot, just to be sure, then start the network wizard and see what it finds.

Hope that helps

Cheers

Hi WhoDo,
I tried out your suggestions but the network WIZ still
won't detect my enet chipset, please have a look at my posting
on Friday Apr06 at "Beginners Help" it's probable droped back to page 3. no one has posted a reply as yet. I have tried console terminal with " ifconfig" but it don't see my onboard e-net chipset. What new could I try?

Cheers Tui

Found your other post with the info that you provided & clicked on it.

Every web page has a unique address or info on the top (http/) that you can copy & paste.. Responded to your note here & copy pasted the url from the other note.
It becomes a clickable link once I respond to your note (can't explain that part just know that's how it works).

I'm interested in the thread as I have unresolved wifi scenarios & much can be learned by following others' scenarios. I posted the link to make it easy to get to the other info.

Every post can be linked specifically & not just a whole thread.

jonyo,
Can you explain more in detail.
The link I always see and reference sometimes is always the link of the whole thread.
How do you isolate a specific post then?

This appeared on your note (as it does on every note).
Just to the left (of "Posted") is a small box that is clickable & will isolate an individual post. If you copy & paste that url to a note, it will link to it, rather than the beginning of a thread.

What i'd like to know is how one creates a link like i've seen that changes the wording & for example sez check here (here becomes a clickable link)

I'm still not with you.
In every post I see in the complete view, I have 3 buttons, 1 quote, 2 profile and 3 pm (personal mail). In my own posts there is a fourth one edit.
Did you change something in your profile for this?

I never succeeded in doing that, so I'll like to know also.

I tried by using the URLCode tag, but that didn't work. I typed the url, highlighted it, pushed the URL code tag and got http://www.puppyos.com :? [/url] The URL was there but I didn't know where to put the text.
Thanks.

I just copied your last post (above). The rest of the thread, if there is one, will show
(by scrolling down); but the page that opens will start at the selected post.
