So, was there, like, a question you wanted to ask, or are you just kind of
giving us a whitepaper status-of-your-linux statement?
DHCP, if set up correctly, will provide your laptop with whatever it needs for
whichever network you're on. Assuming your goal is to occcasionally be on
any of the three networks, a script would be handy to do manual config on the
manual network.
Note that static vs. dynamic addressing is not the same as DHCP vs. manual
configuration.
If you're looking for help with the lock-up, can you start the laptop in
console or single-user mode? Do you know what chipset, refresh rates, RAM,
and other settings the system uses? What did it use under Windows? What did
it use under RedHat?
