[gobolinux-users] Network problems

[Dan]

When you try to stop and restart the network task, does it return  
immediately without printing anything, or do you see a message like  
this:
StartTask: Network: Returned code 0 => OK.

If you're not seeing any indication of progress, you may be a victim  
of a network task bug. I came across this earlier myself, and it's  
been fixed in CVS, but I don't know whether there's been a new  
version of the scripts released since then.

Make sure the first few lines of /System/Links/Tasks/Network look  
something like this:

#!/bin/sh

source GoboPath
source ${goboSettings}/BootOptions
if [ -r "${goboSettings}/NetworkOptions" ]; then
    source ${goboSettings}/NetworkOptions 2> /dev/null
fi
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

If StartTask was exiting without printing anything, that should  
hopefully correct the problem. If not, let us know what happens when  
you try to ifconfig eth0 up yourself.
