I'm having problems with a server I have just upgraded from 8.0 to Fedora Core2. The networking stopped working though everything still looks ok. The machine in question has a dual P4 Xeon (S2721) motherboard which has 1 dual Gigabit ethernet and 1 single 100 Mg port. Before I upgraded I had my ethernet connected to one of the Gigabit ports. Since the upgrade all I can seem to do to get things working is connect to the 100 Mg port and configure that as eth0. This is ok for now but I want to get the Gigabit connection working soon. (Also, I at first tried to configure it as eth2, which is what I thought it should be, but that just confused things, and really that is another story! It seemed to want to slower port, when it was connected, eth0) I have an identical machine running 8.0 still so I can compare things. Here is the output of lsci: <698-54>brahma# lspci|grep ther 01:01.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 10) 07:01.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82546EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 01) 07:01.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82546EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 01) I have tried diabling the Pro 100 port in the BIOS, and also removing it from /etc/modprobe.conf and the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth2 entry, thinking that it was getting confused about which was which, but that didn't help either. Is there something wrong with the driver that comes with the Core2 setup? I have updated to the latest kernel(2.6.6-1.435.2.3smp) and that hasn't helped either. Any help much appreciated, Ross -- Ross Macintyre (raz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx)
