Hi, where is 'download.use_geoip_mirror = true' set then since the line I speak of is commented out. When it is commented out, it cannot be read by zypper? Is the variable placed elsewhere then? -Thanks

error -ENODEV: unknown chip XID 64a, contact r8169 maintainers
by kingdud＠quietly.win 10 Dec '24

10 Dec '24

I have an Asrock X870e Nova motherboard, with a 5G ethernet port driver by the Realtek 8169. Apparently this kernel module/chip has been a bit of a pain. I found one thread for support on the Arch linux forums (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=300278) and the fix seems to be to notify maintainers there's a problem. I don't know what else you need from me or I can provide.
