Machines that should for now be affected: *adalid*, *field*. According to Karsten one cannot really trust /sys/class/net/*/carrier or there may be delay issues (let the network driver give some more time to detect a link?). Bjorn is playing a bit with it on adalid (go ahead and double check on *field* -> same driver? same problem? ...) BTW: We also saw problems with ethtool and therefore are now activating network devices via ifup and then use ethtool to detect the link. I could imagine ethtool and /sys/../carrier link detection are rather similar/same? Then yast problaby also needs a workaround like activate network cards first? -- 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.
