hi, yes is my first post and i am rather noob , well, here is my problem:

I managed to successfully install archlinux on my pc but i cant have a working internet connection.

some info:

-ping 127.0.01 -c 10:
10 packets transmited, 10 received, 0% loss time 8996 ms

-ping 200.83.1.2 (a dns server of my isp, i think..):
network unreachable

-when archlinux is starting i get: starting netwok FAIL

also, when i put as root /etc/rc.conf restart and same with resolv.conf i get:
permision denied, is this issue related with my problem?

-dmesg (summarized XD ):

Your rc.conf looks fine for dhcp. You have to do /etc/rc.d/network restart to restart the network.

Try modprobing 8139too if it isn't already loaded.
You can also try using hwdetect to load modules: hwdetect --load-modules.

i have already tried modprobing 8139too, link up means ethernet card is somekind ready to receive and send packets right?

Should that exclamation be there in dhcp? or does it matter?

...Im not willing to disable dhcp, I want it to get working!!

bneate · 2005-12-06 00:56:46

I may just be silly but have you tried to run dhcpcd eth0? It looks like your problem is that you havnt accuired a ip address. Are you behind a router?

zwa · 2005-12-06 01:16:08

Yes i have tried dhcpcd eth0 with no success and i am not behind a router.
I must say that under other linux distribution i have not this problem so it is not hardware related.

phrakture · 2005-12-06 02:24:08

Check your loaded modules. It 8139cp is loaded, 8139too won't work. This has been a problem for a real long time with this chipset.

Also, you do not need dhclient.conf for dhcp, nor do you need to edit resolv.conf, as dhcp will overwrite that.

zwa · 2005-12-06 09:53:29

[root@myhost cd]# /sbin/rmmod 8139cp
ERROR: Module 8139cp does not exist in /proc/modules

Also, you do not need dhclient.conf for dhcp, nor do you need to edit resolv.conf, as dhcp will overwrite that.

So i dont worry about those files because they are going to be overwrited, no matter how much i modified them, right?

pd: i still cant have a working internet connection..X(

T-Dawg · 2005-12-06 11:21:08

Maybe you could boot into a live cd or something with network and get some updates?

Jedi Stannis · 2005-12-06 17:50:09

Hey, I am having a very similar problem. My internet has been working fine for a while, and suddenly yesterday it stopped working. I get the same problem as you (eth0 comes up with no ip address) and I have no idea whats wrong. It seems like it must be something was updated that broke it. I've tried rolling back the kernel and that didnt work. Any other ideas on what packages I could rollback to get my internet working again?

phrakture · 2005-12-06 18:26:38

Ok, for both of you: the only things required to use the network script for dhcp is as follows:

# rc.conf
eth0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(lo eth0)

make sure your module is loaded and run /etc/rc.d/network restart.

If this fails, you need to make sure you have the right module loaded. If you do not know your module, post the output of "lspci" and "lsmod".

If this still does not work, try doing things manually:
* remove your module (modprobe -r modulename)
* reload the module (modprobe modulename) and check dmesg for messages
* run "ifconfig eth0 up" and check dmesg for messages
* run "dhcpcd eth0" and check dmesg for messages

If this does not result in anything, then it probably has to do with router settings.

Jedi Stannis · 2005-12-06 19:42:23

fixed

the problem? the connection in my room to the switch somehow died. I plugged into the other ethernet jack in my room and it workd... so i went to the router room and switched the cables on the switch so the port behind my computer now works. weird as hell. but i have internet now.

zwa · 2005-12-06 21:45:14

well, i guess im'not as lucky as you.

here is the output of dmesg after trying with:
