Okay please ignore my previous email - a hard reboot fixed it(?). God know why. Cheers, The-boy-who-cried-wolf Jonathan Brooks wrote:
Hi,
I *was* running SuSE 10 x86_64 with no problems up until this morning when I installed the latest security patch (a new kernel). Now I have no network connection, my system is running at a snail's pace, and I can't even reboot the machine.
I'm used to having to recompile my Nvidia graphics driver, and reconfigure vmware whenever I get a new kernel like this. Now the problem I seem to have is with my on-board NIC. In the past I have used Nvidia's nvnet kernel module to support the CK804 network interface, but this now seems to be screwed. Has anyone else noticed this behaviour?
Anyone using an Nforce4 motherboard might think twice before applying this update, rather than just accepting it as I did.
Any hints/tips on how I might fix this would be greatly appreciated.
Sys details:
Giga-byte Ultra9 Nforce4 mobo Athlon64 X2 4400+ SuSE 10.0 x86_64
Yours,
Jon
