Athlon on Gigabyte motherboard GA-K8NXP-9 & SuSE 9.2
I have installed SuSE 9.2 pro on an Athlon with IDE hard disk. I got some problems with my motherboard Gigabyte GA-K8NXP-9 1. my USB memory stick is not recognized: 396-May 12 08:09:55 www kernel: subfs: unsuccessful attempt to mount media (256) 397:May 12 08:10:16 www kernel: usb 1-6: new high speed USB device using address 2 398:May 12 08:10:16 www kernel: usb 1-6: Product: USB_HUB 399:May 12 08:10:16 www kernel: usb 1-6: Manufacturer: JMTek LLC. 400-May 12 08:10:16 www kernel: hub 1-6:1.0: USB hub found 401-May 12 08:10:16 www kernel: hub 1-6:1.0: 1 port detected 402:May 12 08:10:17 www kernel: usb 1-6.1: new high speed USB device using address 3 403:May 12 08:10:17 www kernel: usb 1-6.1: Product: USB_Storage 404:May 12 08:10:17 www kernel: usb 1-6.1: Manufacturer: JMTek LLC. 455-May 12 08:16:13 www modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.8-24-default/modules.dep: No such file or directory 456-May 12 08:16:14 www last message repeated 73 times 457:May 12 08:17:18 www kernel: usb 1-6: USB disconnect, address 2 458:May 12 08:17:18 www kernel: usb 1-6.1: USB disconnect, address 3 2. as in line 455 above to see modules.dep not found How to fix it? 3. My floppy is not recognized If I put in a floppy, I cannot mount it (mount /dev/fd0 /media/floppy) 4. My motherboard has two Ethernet ports and a wireless port, however I can only get one Ethernet port to work. How can I activate the other two? (ethernet and wireless) bye Ronald

Did you by chance update the kernel and forget to reboot? It has happened to the best of us. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge

Reboot helped a lot, .... (I did not recognize that with the first update also the kernel was updated) Floppy and USB are recognized now.

Generally a "no link" means that the cable was not connected or is not seated all the way. Try removing and re-inserting the cable and rcnetwork restart to see if becomes available. You can check this with either dmesg or (as root) ifconfig. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge

Both Ethernet ports are on board, ... bye Ronald

They still require a cable unless it is wireless, ... -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge

Found this out when I took over care of a bunch of Mandrake 10 boxen (suddenly I appreciate SUSE a lot more than I used to!) without knowing the root password and without being able to shut some of them down. -- Kind regards Hans du Plooy SagacIT (Pty) Ltd hansdp at sagacit dot com

Ronald, please send the output of lspci -v for this card. I'm curious as to why you needed to download the driver. SUSE 9.2 and 9.3 took care of mine out of the box. -- Kind regards Hans du Plooy SagacIT (Pty) Ltd hansdp at sagacit dot com
