Well, that should be fun. I've got it working "properly" now (I have an e100 nic, which does properly support reading link status when operationally down). I had to remove /lib/rcscripts/net/ifplugd.sh as I could not disable it from conf.d/net I still have this at the top of conf.d/net: modules=( "!plug" ) modules_eth0=( "!plug" ) modules=( "!ifplugd" ) modules_eth0=( "!ifplugd" ) The postdown function doesn't get executed with ifplugd.sh in place, as the interface is never actually brought down. -- Mike Williams -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
