ockham23, every computer in this apartment building uses Windows XP except my computers. The Windows computers connect with the ISP normally. My computers connect normally if I use PC-BSD or FreeBSD. Only when I use Linux any new Linux do I get that annoying delay before connecting. I don't know enough to point my finger at the problem. I thought it might be the eight port D-Link router in my landlady's apartment that connects to the three port router issued by the ISP. We need at least six ports. Now I am not so sure because only my computers have trouble when I use Linux. I like Linux this is not a flame. It is a mystery. I have used Kanotix off and on for two years. This new Kanotix looks great. My plan is to continue working with FreeBSD but also install Kanotix and find the solution. |

fuzzybud, some routers have problems with Linux clients, while they communicate smoothly with windows machines. Maybe DNS resolution isn't working properly. Try this:
Code:
su
mcedit /etc/resolv.conf
Add the following line:
Code:
nameserver 217.115.138.24
Press F2 to save changes, F10 to quit.
More public name servers: http://www.opennic.unrated.net/public_servers.html
Test new settings with:
Code:
nslookup www.google.com 217.115.138.24
If you see an error message like "cannot parse resolv.conf" delete "search" from the list of nameservers and try nslookup again. Surf to your favorite websites to test DNS resolution with the new settings. |

Hello!
devil hat folgendes geschrieben::
doknir,
you cannot dist-upgrade to RC2.
you must get the iso or the xdelta-patch from RC1 to RC2 and do update-install from the installer.
if you dont want that, rm -rf /etc/X11/xkb will fix the kbd-layout bug.
Oops!
I did the xdelta-patch to RC2 and it is ok now!
Thx, R. |

Ack. I'm sorry. I posted this originally in the "contributed bug list for RC1" postings, but it should have been here! I'll just copy this over, then leave an edit on the old post to that effect...
I tried installing to disk today. Upon running into the separate '/home' partition problem like everyone else (btw: 'Mountpoint' is spelled incorrectly in that warning), I stepped back through the installer to try other things.
When I got (the second time) to the "user" tab, where you input your root password and user's real name, username, and password, the realname and username had been remembered, but the root passwords and user passwords were filled in with 6 stars (whereas my passwords all have considerably more characters than that). I think that people used to the installation might run into more problems than a new user here, because they'll see that their username was remembered, and notice that the password fields are filled in, but might not notice that they're filled with the wrong passwords! I anticipate that could cause a LOT of headaches.

Get rid of that D-Link and your long delay connecting to the internet will probably go away.
Do you have a long delay connecting to the internet without the router ?
ockham23 has a good idea with linux as a router or pick up something different than the D-link (linksys is far better than a d-link in my opinion) |

I will go shopping later today for a different router. My landlady has just returned for a month long vacation so I can finally get into her apartment to make the switch. I will do that tomorrow if all goes well and report back. |

ockham23 and piper, delayed connection problem solved thanks to the two of you. Now that I am abe to get into my landlady's apartment I moved my connection to the ISP's router, bypassing the D-Link router. Now my new computer and my epia 5000 connect to the Internet using Kanotix. This has been a long nagging problem. The answer is to not use D-Link routers. One day I will understand why PC-BSD worked and Linux didn't. Right now I will install Kanotix and dual boot it with PC-BSD. |
