Please send the output for:

# mii-tool 

Maybe there is a problem with your ethernet network

Also some output from:

# tcpdump -i eth0

Are you using DHCP?

Cheers,

Subject: [opensuse] can't ping to gateway

Hello, good evening

Just installed opensuse succcessful (standard kde install, no changes in
software selection). Installed network card with Yast, stopped firewall
(clicked "start manual" and stopped it).

Everything seems normal, but I don't get any connection to outside. Ping
to my gateway doesn't work ("destination host unreachable"). I just
entered all the same values for local ip, gateway, name-server... as in
Suse 9 on same machine. Ping to local host works.

I don't know which info you need, here's what is displayed when typing
"ifconfig":

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:08:A1:35:BF:BC  
          inet addr:192.168.2.2  Bcast:192.168.2.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::208:a1ff:fe35:bfbc/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:14 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:38 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:1957 (1.9 Kb)  TX bytes:2462 (2.4 Kb)
          Interrupt:9 Base address:0xb400 

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
          RX packets:102 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:102 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 
          RX bytes:6880 (6.7 Kb)  TX bytes:6880 (6.7 Kb)

this is (apart from the no. of packets/bytes) exactly the same as in
Suse 9.

"route -n" gives the following:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use

192.168.2.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0
eth0
169.254.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0
eth0
127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0         255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0
lo
0.0.0.0         192.168.2.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0
eth0

where I am wondering about the "169.254.0.0"-line, because I never typed
in such a ip-number anywhere. On Suse 9 this would give me only 2 lines
(192... 
and 0.0.0.0).

Should I send the /var/log/messages of my last Suse10 session? In case:
Copy text in mail or attach?

What did I forget to make my network connection work?
Thanks for any help.
Daniel
