OK, probably totally no connection but just a thought, Yesterday I had a power failure while I was out. The server stayed up, because of its UPS, but a thin client went down and would not restart. PXE complained about a cable being disconnected, even though the status LEDs were on. Changed cables, ports on switches, nothing. Then thought the onboard card must be US, tried to disable it from the BIOS but there was no setting showing. Thought I might as well try clearing the BIOS by removing the battery and trying again later.
All back to normal. As I said just a thought.

Mines worse, it thinks theres a link even when the cables disconnected. Regards Dave P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
