------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-01-08 02:40 ------- I'm seeing the same behavior on a Dell Inspiron 8100. This problem isn't just seen when cards are plugged in during boot up. Whenever you plug in a PCMCIA card, the termination happens, as Adam pointed out, in about a minute. I can still use my network card by doing "dhclient eth1" after the termination. I'm running Mandrake 9.2 Beta 1. This, obviously, used to work with Mandrake 9.1. The following is an excerpt from my log: Jul 31 17:50:27 localhost ifplugd(eth1)[5586]: client: Determining IP information for eth1... done. Jul 31 17:50:27 localhost ifplugd(eth1)[5586]: Program executed successfully. Jul 31 17:51:24 localhost ifplugd(eth1)[5586]: Executing '/etc/ifplugd/ifplugd.action eth1 down'. Jul 31 17:51:24 localhost ifplugd(eth1)[5586]: Program executed successfully. Jul 31 17:51:24 localhost ifplugd(eth1)[5586]: Exiting. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEW creation_date: description: As in summary. When ifplugd is called for PCMCIA network cards during boot, it starts and begins monitoring the connection correctly. Soon - about a minute and a half after it was started - it exits, seemingly normally, and takes the network connection down with it. The user has to enter "ifup eth0" to bring it up again. I couldn't track down why ifplugd was quitting, but it seemed to be some kind of triggered event, not a simple crash. This is confirmed on two network cards on my laptop, one using orinoco_cs wireless driver and one using pcnet_cs wired driver, and by another Cooker user on his own machine.
