NoOp,

I can ping localhost and 127.0.0.1 with or without the change you 
suggested. Also, that change seems to have no effect on my network 
problem. When I boot into to a command prompt, networking works 
correctly. When I boot to KDE I have no networking. My interfaces have 
been assigned dhcp addresses, but I cannot ping anything outside my PC 
and I have no internet. If I stop networking and then restart networking 
everything is OK.

Thanks again,
Rick
