Hi, I just removed all the stuff (working 7.1 !) and installed a new system with 8.1 pro suse, and the problem is as described below: I use a 3COM 595 PCI ethernet adapter and this thing was detected automatically by 7.1 !! and now this new SUSE 81. just stops recognizing the new hardware. At boot time I see.. "ifup: Could not get a valid interface name. --- Skipped Failed" Anyone there please help... this is chaotic I thought I would update in 2-3 hours.. but this network issue was something totally unexpected, I even tried another network card from REALTEK and the response was the same again .... I think it is some rather basic problem which I cannot seem to figure out.. Regards Vishal K --
