<pre wrap="">Hi List,
I have been trying Fedora 10 for mythtv and have run into a problem,
I can get
or rather let the system install and let it use DHCP and all it
well, but
when I try to make it use a fixed IP address, I get some very strange
results.
It refuses to hold onto the fixed IP and/or the gateway, I have even
had it
working ok for firefox, getting new pages etc, but the network
applet saying
that the machine is disconnected. Very strange.
Has anyone seen anything like this ??

I removed NetworkManager and have a working dhcp network now, haven't
been brave enough to try and configure a static ip again.

I've got the same problems with the new MythDora10.21, which uses
Fedora10. I removed NetworkManager (learned that with MD5 & Fedora
8), but I find that very often on startup ifconfig eth0 shows
everything OK with the correct static IP, but I'm not connected to the
LAN and can't ping anything (network unreachable). <br>
ethtool eth0 also shows 'link detected'. <br>
Usually a reboot brings everything back, although yesterday it took a
power-off to get everything working again.<br>
<br>
I've tried various tips relating to the ifcfg-eth0 & network
contents, but no definite answers for this issue. I also seem to have
remnants of ip6 - I occasionally get an inet6 address as well as the
static one.<br>
<br>
I installed the latest realtek driver - not sure if the same problems
occur with the fedora driver. I need the latest updated driver so I can
use wake-on-lan and with that I've often found that although the wakeup
works (is network is connected) there is no LAN connection after
startup.<br>
