 I just finished building a new computer around the Intel DH55TC
 motherboard.  I would like to configure the computer to use DHCP via its
 built-in ethernet tap, but the ethernet was not detected or configured
 on installation.  There is no eth0 entry in /etc/network/interfaces, no
 eth0 entry displayed by ifconfig, no dhcpd.conf file is present, and
 dhcpd is not listed in inetd.conf.
 
 I suspect that the problem is that the motherboard is so new that it's
 not supported in the 2.6.26 version of the kernel:  when I looked at the
 Intel webpage relevant to the
 board, 
 http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/dh55tc/sb/CS-031186.htm,
 it suggests that a LAN driver may be needed for Linux, and I infer from
 their table of information that this is more likely to be the case for
 kernel versions prior to about 2.6.31.
 
 So what I think I need to do is the following:
 
1. Download and install the LAN driver
2. Manually configure the system so that it recognizes the Ethernet tap
3. Add eth0 to /etc/network/interfaces
4. add a dhcpd.conf file
5. add dhcpd to inetd.conf.
 
 Does that sound about right, or is the reality simpler / less simple
 than that?
 
 Assuming I've got it right:  how do I accomplish step 2?
 
 Thanks in advance,
 -PT

What is your current kernel version? An update might solve the issue.

hi,
this is my first question here,
i want to know whether, mobile broad band works out of the box in
squeeze?
i use huawei ce0862 dongle to connect.

it didn't work for me in lenny (in fact i didn't find a way to initiate
a mobile broadband connection at the first place).

have things changed from then??

would i be able to connect easily to the internet?

thank you very much.




I guess thats very easy on gnome because it has an app that manages 
mobile broadband. Also i have seen one of my friends doing that on KDE 
thru an app called Kppp.

Manao ahoana, Hello, Bonjour,

I have some collegues (including my direct boss) insisting me to use
aptitude.

I dont want to.

When I ask them why, they just tell aptitude is better than apt-get.

May be... but I'm used with apt-get and dont want to switch, and I also
Googled a bit and found a post telling apt-get has now the same level
as aptitude. But I lost that link...

What's the status?
- aptitude better?
- apt-get better?

I don't do deep package manipulation, juste update, upgrade,
dist-upgrade...

Misaotra, Thanks, Merci.



 Yeah i always wondered what the difference is between both of them. 
Hoping someone would shed some light on this matter.
