You only have to add the repository, install the package and (in this case) make sure the new module is in use. In fact I've created a new OBS project just for this bug which should avoid some confusion if we need to test updated versions of the driver to narrow down which patch fixes the issue you observed. # zypper ar "http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/benjamin_poirier:/bnc774557/..." home:benjamin_poirier:bnc774557 # zypper search r8169 # uname -r # zypper in r8169-kmp-desktop # make sure to use the flavor that corresponds to your kernel (default, desktop, pae, xen) To make sure the new module is in use, the easiest way is to reboot. A faster way is to issue: # rcnetwork stop # modprobe -r r8169 # modprobe r8169 # rcnetwork start Please let me know if the problem you observed goes away with this driver. -- 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.
