Hmm - not good.  No ipv4 address for either cabled or wireless.  I haven't 
tried to do anything with the wireless part - I know I need firmware first. 

I ran system-config-network again, and re-set it to static ip, then restarted 
the network service.

Now running ifconfig shows only the loopback stanza.  Ping tells me that the 
network is unreachable.

Funny - I've been using Linux for almost 8 years, and never had an internet 
problem before - in fact I got it working with RH5, in my early 
experimentation days, some 10 year ago.
