I just installed Fedora Core 2 x86_64 on my M6805 laptop. I updated the
bios to the M6809 before I did the install. I installed everything,
and selected dhcp. The two problems I have is, one the system is
very slow! the second is I can't get out on the network. I can ping
my address but nothing on my network. I changed the ethernet from dhcp
to static and it still isn't getting out. eth0 comes up {ok} on booting
.

Anyone have this problem and a fix?

thanks
scott
