Hi, A couple of days ago whilst running F10, a friend was inserting a USB stick and the physical connection on the front panel of my PC broke. The machine immediately powered off. When I booted again, everything seemed fine except that the network connection had stopped working. When I try "service network start", it says it's unable to determine IP information - check cable. If I boot into Windows it works fine. I'm doubtful that it's a hardware problem because (a) it works in Windows, and (b) the problem USB connector is on the front panel and connected via a lead, i.e. it's not directly attached to the motherboard. Any ideas on where to start investigating? As a side question, when I look in system-config-network, I've got a device called pan0. I don't recall it being there, but it may have been there and I just didn't notice it. I'm not using NetworkManager as I've found it can just cause problems. Maybe I could give it a go anyway but I suspect the problem is deeper than that. Thanks, Chris. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
