I am thinking this is related to xen. But there are no instructions I can find on how to configure br0 + eth0. I changed something by configuring br0, and networking started again. But as soon as I tried to set a static address, it died again and would not come back. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

After you change to your static settings and finish yast, run sudo /sbin/ifup eth0 and see if eth0 comes up (steve@linux-vlkq:~> /sbin/ifconfig) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This means that eth0 MUST NOT have an IP-Address other than 0.0.0.0/32 in order for networking to work. To setup a static IP-Address, you edit the bridge's configuration instead. /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-br0 is the raw config, if you don't want to use yast2 lan -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
