-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Yesterday I wanted to update my small laptop (on Leap 15.2), and I connected it to the ethernet cable, but the laptop did not recognize it. If run "rcnetwork restart" it would appear, but would not connect to anything. At first I thought "dns trouble", but then I found that a ping 8.8.8.8 failed as well. I left it at that and switched ti WiFi, and performed the update, hoping that would cure the problem. Today I rebooted, with a newer kernel, and the cable connected from the start. After opening the desktop (I'm using Network Manager), I observed ini gkrellm that the interface eth0 was appearing and disapearing every minute or so. After a while, it became stable. It is not the cable, moving it has no effect. Message log: https://susepaste.org/51821193 (I see the interface is going on and off again, in the log) Obviously, I have tried another cable, connected to another port of the switch. Same trouble. The switch led is solid green, but the computer does not see it. "rcnetwork restart" makes it appear with the correct IP, but a ping to the router (by number) fails. In fact, after removing the cable completely and issuing the command again, ifconfig reports that eth0 keeps the same address, but wlan has no address, and I can no longer connect to it. Ping to router from machine fails. Manually telling NM to dissconnect the ethernet (which cable was removed minutes ago) allows the wifi to work again. Second part of messages log: https://susepaste.org/63312588 What is going on? This laptop worked previously, days ago. With the same cables. Another laptop works fine with one of those cables. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
