It may be worth trying pci=noacpi instead of whole acpi=off, if it fixes anything (as it shouldn't here).

It looks like a borked BIOS. Could you try to update your BIOS? I dont't think that is the problem, because with openSuse 11.0 everything was working. Except that the LED that indicates WLAN activity wasn't blinking (but who cares?). A change in the OS shouldn't require a BIOS update?!

Could you try the kernel from: http://labs.suse.cz/jslaby/bug-555608/ to see what happens with ath9k?
I installed the smaller rpm kernel-desktop-base-2.6.31.6-0.1.x86_64.rpm. But I couldn't install kernel-desktop-2.6.31.6-0.1.x86_64.rpm because of broken dependencies. See http://fischlii.gmxhome.de/11.2/snapshot1.png After I tried to boot the system with the new installed kernel (without the bigger rpm) I ran to the following problem. The kernel doesn't know ext4. See http://fischlii.gmxhome.de/11.2/DSC01806.JPG Sorry its a poor camera. But the basic error message is: mount: unknown filesystem type 'ext4' could not mount root filesystem ... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

After installing the new kernel packages everything works fine with the openSuse default kernel options (vga=something)/boot settings. So the new kernel looks like a fix to me. Do you need more information? Or is it a fix by a "lucky coincidence"?
Which Kernel fixed it? Was it Jiri's Kernel from Comment #9? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Yes. The kernel was from http://labs.suse.cz/jslaby/bug-555608/ and fixed both network devices, which had problems before. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Unfortunately, I can't try this kernel due to Bug #543076. Can you create a non-desktop kernel? Patrick -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Please try a kernel from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/openSUSE-11.2/ instead. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Well, I hope this is not up to me - because I don't like changing kernels too often. And Patrick Smart doesn't seem to respond. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Unfortunately, I had the case again of having a freshly booted system with no network. I did an "rcnetwork restart" and had it all normal. I suspect it has nothing to do with it but nfs ans nfsserver also fail to start.
What Kernel are you running. Did you test ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/openSUSE-11.2/ as suggested in Comment #19?

We can't really help if you can't test Kernels.(In reply to comment #20) Thanks. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
