Dear all.
Die somebody get the Ethernet working with the Realtek RTL8125B chip. It is commonly used on new B550 mainboards.
I tried the Leap15.2 KDE Live USB stick and the Tumbleweed 20200801 Live KDE USB image. Both do not work.
It seems the r8169 driver tries to access the network chip. But, AFAIK there is a separate driver for this chip since kernel 5.4. Using the kernel boot option blacklist=r8169 did not work for me.
Any idea how to get the network running?
Cheers, Michael

It's on its way into the kernel, but note, that it seems to require some firmware: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/ drivers/net/ethernet/realtek? h=next-20200720&id=0439297be95111cf9ef5ece2091af16d140ce2ef Don't know, if Greg will pick this up in the stable series (of 5.8).
