If you want to see current settings sudo ifconfig (old command) Someone might post the 'new' command If you want to set permanent parameters, just edit /etc/network/interfaces. ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

I'd been using Debian for years (since Sarge), but when they switched to systemd from sysvinit, I started looking for an alternative. Luckily, Devuan Beowulf came along and I abandoned Debian. Happy with it. All working well.

All I did to enable sound was to use alsamixer to turn on the master volume. Volumes for all sound channels is zero by default.

I probably should have, but on finding no mention of eth0 in the /etc files, I reinstalled Beowulf with the cable plugged in. It was so quick compared to the old days, that am dazed that it's all there. Then networking just worked ... even though there was still no mention of eth0. I hadn't been asked for an ethernet address or subnet mask - it was all magic. I've only had Beowulf for a few hours, but it is immediately comfortable. Whoever thought of leaving the release notes on the desktop deserves a medal. That was the first thing I was going to hunt for, as I'd read the note on pulseaudio prior to install. The problem line is commented out, but I still have no audio; will have to poke at that a bit. But first to move email to the new host, so I can get off this webmail horror. Thanks for the suggestion. In retrospect I figure it would have worked. Erik ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
