Re: [suse-amd64] puzzling nic problem

Not with that board, but I've seen it with a via board with an onboard nic and a pci intel. You should be able to disable the onboard nic in the bios if you are not ready to use it. Adding it after the install should be a piece of cake. If you don't want to disable the onboard nic you can check /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 to see what is in there.

I just got a new 64 bit mb/cpu ( asus / amd).

This motherboard has an onboard 1gig nic ( marvel 88E8001). also have an intel 1gig nic in there machine. It sees the intel from the other install in the old machine an see two nics. one being the intel an the other asustek ethernet is what it says it is. i do not have a cable on the onboard nic yet an it is getting an ip address. I think its assigning 2 ip's to one nic but not sure. With no cable plugged into the other nic it has to be doing that. Anyone run into this problem yet. The motherboard is the asus K8V. Anyone else have this mb running with suse yet.
