Re: Lan connection doesn't work. Help

Maybe with a little more information we can help...

Did the internet work with the previous OS? Dual boot?

What version of SliTaz? What's your ethernet card?...

Download the pciutils package for your version of SliTaz and install it

Open a root terminal; type

[c]lspci -nn[/c]

and post the result.

Hi there. Output of "lspci -nn" avaliable in "Tazpanel -> Hardware -> Summary" without pciutils package.

> tazpanel rev 596

> hardware.cgi: read pci.ids

I think this code should be replaced somewhere for  terminal usage.

Hi there,

2az_ua:

Interesting code, but it slow as hell. It may be optimized to run about 5 times faster:

Or better, original [c]lspci[/c] may be used. It has more yummy cookies inside
