Terribly slow networking: RH 6.2, 486, NE2000 clone

Terribly slow networking: RH 6.2, 486, NE2000 clone

Post by Stephen Walto » Sat, 10 Jun 2000 04:00:00



I'm running RedHat 6.2, newly installed, on a 486/33 box being used
basically as an X terminal.  We recently moved from 10base2 to 10baseT,
and I replaced the network card with a Netgear EA201 NE2000 compatible.
I am seeing transfer rates in the range of 10-20 KB/s on a switched
10/100 network.  'netstat -i eth0 -v' shows no dropped packets, no
collisions, no overruns.  This wasn't a problem with our NE2000
compatible 10base2 card on this machine before.  Any ideas?

1. Can't Get To Run Level 5 with RH 6.2 on IBM ValuePoint 486

I've edited /etc/inittab to specify run level 5. I was able to get to run
level 5 with RedHat 5.2. Any ideas on how to diagnose this problem?
(I did a minimal installation, perhaps I left something out?)

After booting to run level 3 and logging in, I am able to start X (GNOME).

Thanks.
