Deja Vu all over again

[John F. Kohler]

Although I could ping addresses outside my network, neither
Netscape nor Lynx could display a page.  So I am still
confused.

I took a look at /etc/modules.conf

alias parport_lowlever parport_pc
alias usb-controller usb-uhci
alias eth0 ne
options ne io=0x2a0 irq=10

~"modules.conf"4L, 109C"

Here is /sbin/lsmod:

I  tried /proc/interrupts: and got permission denied.
