Hey Gang,
Bringing up a new install of 7.1 on an HP Kayak XU800 with a RealTek RTL813
9
NIC card.
I installed from an ftp server after selecting the RealTek RTL8129/8139 NIC kernel module during the yast1 ftp install. After the successful install SuSE rebooted and everything except the NIC came up. Which is strange since I just got done installing over that same NIC.
I supose you installed the 2.4 kernel, right?
The name for the Realtek NIC has changed in the serie 2.4.
Edit your /etc/modules.conf and change the line
alias eth0 rtl8139
to read:
alias eth0 8139too
Then run:
depmod -a
and then:
modprobe 8139too
