I also have this integrated into the mobo (Albatron 865PE ProII) and the only way I was able to make it work was to upgrade to Mantel's 2.4.21 kernel.
Thanks for the link to Mantel - I'm now using his vmlinuz-2.4.21-58-smp. I've persuaded the kernel to boot (the default command-line options caused an error) but eth0 doesn't come up. There's a message:
Setting up network interfaces: eth0 failed
Is there a log or command to discover more detail of the problem?
Once it's booted I can start the network by hand (modprobe e1000; ifup eth0) so it seems likely to be a config error somewhere.
Is there a way to make it load automatically? Or what is the SuSE way to configure it manually (rc.local etc)?
Thanks, Dave ================
Dave, There were problems with Mantel's 2.4.21-58, which is mostly corrected with the -59 build he presently has on his site. I still don't have 3D with the -59 build, but we have traced that down now as well and I am looking forward to the next one to get that back also. So far, the 2.4.21-59 build is working quite well.
