Re: [PLUG] RE: USB ethernet

Try doing
# ifconfig eth0 <ip address>
If this works, verify it by typing
# ifconfig
Now it should show (at least) the lo and eth0 interfaces, with eth0 having
the ip address you entered. If this doesn't work then something is
obviosly wrong (Tho from dmesg it's hard to tell what since it looks like
everything is loading right).
Get back to us after trying that.

Too often people have come to me and said, "If I had just one wish for
anything in all the world, I would wish for more user-defined equations
in the HP-51820A Waveform Generator Software."
