If this is "invalid" (i.e. based on the wrong assumption it should be working) then there should at least be a notice in the YaST Network Devices setup to that end.

Now I think better description is WONTFIX (it's bug but won't be fixed) but this one will be fixed by upstream (but only for this one model not general). Or I can assign it as DUPLICATE of similar bugs ;-(. Problem is that I can't write anything there (in YaST dialog) because device without kernel driver is recognized as ethernet card. I disscussed this with kernel people and we can create some database of such devices but probably not for 10.3 Can I see "hwinfo --netcard" and "hwinfo --wlan"? -- 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.
