SuSE 8.2 and NIC

I had SuSE8.0 installed and working fine. I then did a new install on 8.2 and it doesn't activate the eth0 while 8.0 did. The hardware is the same and the eth0 works OK on other distros I have on the same machine. The bootlog shows: Setting up network interfaces lp0 done eth0 failed I attempt to fix through YAST2 but it shows the network interface as if it were OK, showing correct device and settings. How can I diagnose and fix? Thanks Dennis
