Hello,
I am new to SuSE. I installed SuSE on my machine and used YAST to configure the network. After I restarted the system, the "ifconfig" command, shows the loopback device and dummy device. It did not find the eth0 device. How do I get the system to find the eth0 device?
Thank you.

I am guessing that you do not have your network card loaded. Have you recompiled the kernel to include support for your card?? If you have modular support for your card, you can type: lsmod to see what modules are loaded. If the card is not loaded, you can load it manually by typing: insmod [module_name_here] I use: insmod /lib/modules/2.0.33/net/3c509.o then use ifconfig to down the dummy0 network and bring up the eth0 ifconfig dummy0 down ifconfig eth0 up hope that helps mc - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
