I tested the CMOS battery and found out that it's already juiced up so I replaced it with a new one - but the problem still persist.
Heres's an output of dmesg: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ ]$ dmesg | grep -in mac 32:Intel machine check architecture supported. 33:Intel machine check reporting enabled on CPU#0. 62:ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LMAC] (IRQs 3 4 5 6 7 10 *11 12 14 15) 201:ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LMAC] enabled at IRQ 11 203:ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:04.0[A] -> Link [LMAC] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 205:0000:00:04.0: Invalid Mac address detected: 9d:00:65:be:b4:b2 206:Please complain to your hardware vendor. Switching to a random MAC. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ ]$ Apparently, it's a hardware problem, but I never experienced this kind of problem until now. Has anyone experienced problems similar to this? Thank you. On 3/10/07, Percy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I don't know if this is a hardware problem or a DHCP problem but i notice that the MAC address of my NIC is constantly changing every reboot. I'm expecting that the MAC shouldn't change after bringing down the interface, set a valid MAC, and bring it up again, pero the address still changes - specifically the 3rd up to the 6th after every reboot. Here's what I did: ifconfig eth0 down ifconfig eth0 hw ether 12:34:56:78:9a:bc ifconfig eth0 up /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 start /** im using slackware **/ Any ideas?
