I get this eth0/ppp0 PCMCIA card glitch after recompiling my kernel.
I have ppp and pcmcia support. My situation is this. I have a new
laptop from ASL. It comes with a twin Ethernet/Modem pcmcia card. You
have a place for a phone jack and and the huskier ethernet 10/1000
jack. Before recompile my modem and internet prograsms found the
ppp/modem route, no problem.
NOW...my dial up program (wvdial) calls up USWest and logs on fine,
pppd starts, I'm authenticated. But Netscape, FTP and my e-mail
program all try to use the ethernet port. I see its lights start to
flicker. And of course all locks up.
Why can my dialer find the right hole but my internet apps try the wrong hole.
I will not make a sick joke about two sailors and a sheep.
I have checked "resolv.conf, hosts, hosts.allow etc... All are filled
out right.
What needs to be configured?
Thanks
Hal
