If it doesn't work for you you're no worse off than now :-)
Well, I don't do wifi on that machine; strictly an ethernet cable
connection. But I took you to mean eth0 and eth1; deleted them; ran kudzu,
tried to add them back; and got more of the same old same old.
So I deleted them again, and rebooted. Then I tried "yum update yum" (as
being a relatively small task). No joy.
Just in case, I did "yum clean all" followed by "rpm --rebuilddb" --
which
ran quite a long time, as usual. It still didn't connect.
Since I last got into Gmane, Rick Stevens has suggested another
hardware-removal procedure, which I'll be trying while anyone reads this.
Stay tuned.
