| Post subject: | Via Rhine Network not Detected... |
First things first, I am new to linux so bare this in mind. I have managed to get mythTV to run but I have no network support at the moment. It seems that my network adapter is not detected at startup so no DHCP stuff goes on. I have a via epia MII 12000 which I beleive uses the via rhine chipset. Previously I had Damn Small Linux on the box and the network worked just fine. Any ideas? Finally - if I do get the network adapter working is there a web browser in Knoppmyth? I need to cut and paste some wget commands from somewhere else on this forum. Thanks in advance. |

no there is no browser by default. You can install firefox. DO NOT attempt to install knonqueror. I usually paste the wget commands via ssh seems much easier to me. |

I have tried netcardconfig but it reports no cards found. I might add when I did the initial install I did not have a network card onboard. I am expecting this is the problem - is there any way to get the card installed post install? Also - how do I get the config screens with IP address etc back? Previously when I booted into Knoppmyth I had to enter my su password and I got some extra config menus and then it would go from that to the main "user" menu. |

Answered my own questions largely. modconfig - allows you to add in modules such as network cards mythtv-setup - gets you into the main setup screen of myth I think they are the two things I used for those who might be in the same situation |
