Hi all
My network card has stopped working again
All I can say is that when I see the messages at
boot up time I see the attempt to start network
interface eth0 FAIL then later PCMCIA is started.
Surely this order of startup must be key to the
problem with PCMCIA NICs ???
I set the ONBOOT=NO but this did not result in th
eNIC being activated after reboot.
However, I am finding if in the "fedora network
device control" screens I completely delete both eth0
and hardware definitions then I reboot, that the
device is NOT seen on the NDC screens but it IS seen
when ifconfig is issued - and the network connection
is working
ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr
00:80:C7:44:74:94
inet addr:192.168.0.8 Bcast:192.168.0.255
Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::280:c7ff:fe44:7494/64

Weird stuff
I am not confident this approach will result in a
stable NIC
