Greetings!
I've just put RH 7.1 on a Thinkpad iSeries 1452; the sound card works, the
whole thing looks great; I'm having a problem with my ether net card though.
I see the lights flashing on the Dongle, and I put the right proxy
information in my browser, but I can't see the internet.
I get an error during start up:
 
Bringing up interface eth0:   Delaying eth0 initialization
[FAILED]
 
This is during a littany of things that all show   [   OK    ].
 
rp3 1.1.0 runs in my tray down at the bottom,  with  "0:01  30B","0:01
20B","0:01 130B","0:01  243B" painting quietly in a small window beside a
tiny usage type graph.
 
Clicking on Local Network gives the error "Could not connect to host
Localhost"
 
Anybody have ideas?
TIA
john
