[opensuse] network card configuration problem on 11.1
Hello: Sorry for it but this post will be a little bit long. I have a problem configuring network card in openSUSE 11.1. I have an onboard network card which is recognized as "Giga-byte GA-7VM400M/7VT600 Motherboard" in openSUSE 10.3 (in YAST/Network card/network settings window). The same card is recognized as "RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+" in openSUSE 11.1 YAST. This network card worked perfectly in openSUSE 11.1 Recently I have installed a PCI network card (VIA VT6105 RhineIII), and removed all existing network card configurations in 11.1 YAST to start configuration from scratch. Now when I want to configure network in 11.1, YAST gives the following error message: "RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (Not connected) BusID : 0000:00:13.0 Unable to configure the network card because the kernel device (eth0, wlan0) is not present. This is mostly caused by missing firmware (for wlan devices). See dmesg output for details." I can neither delete nor configure the card. I can configure the other card in YAST. In dmesg I found this: eth0: VIA Rhine III at 0x19000, 00:40:f4:b1:f3:ba, IRQ 18. eth0: MII PHY found at address 1, status 0x7849 advertising 05e1 Link 0000. ... 8139cp: 10/100 PCI Ethernet driver v1.3 (Mar 22, 2004) ... eth0 renamed to eth2 by udevd [1232] udev: renamed network interface eth0 to eth2 ... eth2: link down ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth2: link is not ready (I guess the RTL card would require 8139too driver.) So, how could I fix this, ie configure the RTL card? Thanks, Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
