when I configure my ethernet card through draknetcenter as a DHCP client, everything seems to be OK, no error message. But then, when I click on the connect button, connection fails silently (I can check with ifconfig eth0 that no IP address is affected to eth0). I tried dhclient -v eth0 from the command line, but no more success, the output is : ------------ Listening on LPF/eth0/00:1c:7e:0a:19:b8 Sending on LPF/eth0/00:1c:7e:0a:19:b8 Sending on Socket/fallback DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 3 DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 3 DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 5 ---------------- And so on.... I also tried to start draknetcenter from gnome-terminal as root, to see if there was any error messages. Here is what I get at startup : ------------- SIOCETHTOOL: No such device [6 times] RTNETLINK answers: Operation not possible due to RF-kill ------------- I finally tested DHCP connection on the same computer with a Debian Squeeze system : no problem, it works.

What's the output of "lspcidrake -v|grep -i net"? Also, could you _attach_ the dmesg.txt file resulting from running the following command: "dmesg > dmesg.txt"
