Internet Problems on Felica LiveCD

[Fornhamfred]

Hi

Could you please give more information on your setup as have not had any problems with Felicia Live CD connecting to the internet via ethernet.

[Fornhamfred]

Are you trying to connect wired or wireless? Any other info on your system would help.

Try running

Code: Select all

lshw

and posting that. I'm doubting a driver issue (though it is possible), because Linux has great support for ethernet cards.

Hi

Out of interest I tried lswh on my Felicia Live CD, my Felicia install and my Elyssa install. I have no problem connecting to the internet or accessing network files with either of the installs.

Felicia live CD and install gave the same result for the live cd and install.

Elyssa gives the following:

From Felicia install:

The DISABLED string in your felicia install could very well be the problem. To fix it, type the following.

Code: Select all

sudo ifconfig pan0 up 

Code: Select all

lshw

Now, go find the same string, and see if the disabled string is gone, that might fix your problem.

Following terminal entry
lshw gives

*-network

.
Under Network Nautilus shows the Icon for Windows Network but clicking on it gives the error Unable to mount location Failed to retrieve share list from Server

I have a Modem/Router Netgear DG834G, and have WICD running not Network Manager

Open up a terminal and type the following:

Code: Select all

gksu gedit /etc/rc.local

Once there, put that command at the bottom, but in front of the string

"Exit 0" Like this:

Code: Select all

Whatever commands you want automatically executed when Linux starts
Exit 0
