But with both my original install and this upgade I've had no issues with networking. And heck, I'm using a little USB ethernet adapter too! Currently running kernel 2.6.17. No clue on parms. Running whatever the defaults are as far as I can recall. Howdy Remo,

I recently upgraded to 6.10. But with both my original install and this upgade I’ve had no issues with networking. And heck, I’m using a little USB ethernet adapter too!

Currently running kernel 2.6.17. No clue on parms. Running whatever the defaults are as far as I can recall.

The whole web is full of posts about this problem, with various proposed solutions (which have not worked for me so far). Debian 3.1 was working well with the same TP 600e. Did you have a 2.4 or 2.6 kernel? The problem comes with 2.6. Did you set kernel parameters like acpi=off, pci=noacpi? Thank you for your useful posts. Remo Dear Chris,
