can anyone help me get networking to work so I can access the net?

I have installed the win tap 32 network thing and windows detects a connection when osx starts, but the card is always assigned a 169 ip address. I have followed the earlier advice and it still getting the same IP, if i assign things manually i still cannot access the net. Anyone any ideas?

Thanks

Guys, I have to say, PearPC .2 by the original author is really great. Amazing speed increase. And with me having a low end processor I can finally go below 100 redraws and still keep great performance. I suggest you all try it out.

And I'm sorry if this has been asked, but I can't be bothered reading through 184 pages to find the answer. But I'm using 10.3.4 and whenever I try to turn on the rtl network driver for the Tap32 method and load up the config it gives me the error:

unknown identifier 'pci_rtl8139' in line 110

I looked this up on emaculation forums and people were saying to use a different version of PPC, but it still showed up in all the versions I tried...

I got the new ppc.pre03.SDL.win32newclock build off of Richard Goodwin's site and a SDL dll from somewhere on this thread, but I can't seem to get PearPC to run anymore.

If i try to run it, i don't get any error, it just doesn't pop up the normal window.

also, could someone post a link to the tap driver I need, I need to reinstall it and forgot where I found it.

here is my config:

ppc_start_resolution = 8
redraw_interval_msec = 20
prom_driver_graphic = "video.x"
prom_bootmethod = "select"
prom_env_bootargs = ""
prom_env_machargs = ""
memory_size = 0x10000000
pci_ide0_master_installed = 0
pci_ide0_master_image = ""
#"darwin-701.iso"
pci_ide0_master_type = "cdrom"
pci_ide0_slave_installed = 1
pci_ide0_slave_image = "pearpc-6gib.img"
pci_ide0_slave_type = "hd"
pci_3c90x_installed = 0
pci_3c90x_mac = "de:ad:ca:fe:12:34"
pci_rtl8139_installed = 1
pci_rtl8139_mac = "de:ad:ca:fe:12:34"
pci_rtl8139_verbose = 0
pci_usb_installed = 1
nvram_file = "nvram"

Step 4.

Either you can use the Disk Utility or Darwin.

Btw, Klop, I believe that fixed the networking problem, I did manage to start up PearPC fully this time, but still am too busy to let it load OSX. Thanks again.

And thanks Klop, that fixed the unknown error, but right now I'm too busy to test further.

thanks

actually, installing the tap fixed the problem.....

Is there anything I should change in my config to make the animations run smoother? I noticed I had to change the screen setting to 4 instead of 8. what are the new resolution numbers now?

ppc_start_resolution = 4
redraw_interval_msec = 20
prom_driver_graphic = "video.x"
prom_bootmethod = "select"
prom_env_bootargs = ""
prom_env_machargs = ""
memory_size = 0x10000000
pci_ide0_master_installed = 0
pci_ide0_master_image = ""
#"darwin-701.iso"
pci_ide0_master_type = "cdrom"
pci_ide0_slave_installed = 1
pci_ide0_slave_image = "pearpc-6gib.img"
pci_ide0_slave_type = "hd"
pci_3c90x_installed = 0
pci_3c90x_mac = "de:ad:ca:fe:12:34"
pci_rtl8139_installed = 1
pci_rtl8139_mac = "de:ad:ca:fe:12:34"
pci_rtl8139_verbose = 0
pci_usb_installed = 1
nvram_file = "nvram"

someone help me! got a Network problem. My DOS says this

[iO/3c90x] indicate(00000010) mIntStatus now = 00000000

[iO/3c90x] acknowledge(00000010) mIntStatus now = 00000000

[iO/3c90x] EthTun: 250 bytes received. But they don't pass the filter.

[iO/3c90x] Not uploading, because: mUpStalled(=0) or UpListPtr == 0 (=00000000)

or not mRxPacketSize(=0)

I have it configure right i think. My XP show a connection (when i exit it says it dropped it) But i can't recognize it in OS X. Looks like the underneath is seening it but the OS isn't

pci_rtl8139_verbose = 0

nvram_file = "nvram"

You should try getting the official PearPC .2.

http://pearpc.sourceforge.net/

And for .2, only these are showed in the config.

0: 640x480x15

1: 640x480x32

2: 800x600x15

3: 800x600x32

4: 1024x768x15

5: 1024x768x32

I use 1024x768x32 and it runs pretty good. The only other one I know if is 8 which is a widescreen type resolution.

Sorry if this sound stupid but how would I get the networking and internet to work in pearpc .3. I read that all you have to do is remove the bridge. I have no clue on how to do this. Can anyone help me step by step.

Thanks in advance

S.O.S S.O.S HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

in your ppc config file, turn off Verbose mode, i had that the first time and then i took off verbose and it booted into OSX install normally. in your PPC confic there is a command that has a "-v" at the end of it, put a #(hash) in front of it..

I'm having weirdo problems getting the networking to work how I want it on the new SDL patched build. Networking works when I use ICS, but when I bridge my two adapters, the PearPC can't get an IP address from my LAN's DHCP Server. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the card a million times...

Anyone know whats going on?
