I went to sleep, and now the net is working again. The lack of
internet was only for about a half an hour before I went to sleep and
I was able to update  the machine for three days before that happened.
The post I made from the wifes winbox. At the time ifconfig was
"command not found" both for user and for root. Now, with the net up,
ifconfig shows what I'd expect.

Still, I cannot use Konqueror: "KDEInit cannot open /home/user" is the
translation of the error message that I get.
