Re: [SLE] Odd hardware problem on install?

Don't forget that 10.2 is using the new 2.6.18 kernel. Might have something to do with it?

That's possible... although odd that the kernel/driver would be able to turn off a NIC and have it persist over to other OS-es and through reboots etc. I've dropped in a spare Realtek NIC, and will see if I can duplicate the problem with that NIC instead of the onboard... Realtek cards are well supported in Linux in general.... C. .
