Just what I need. Attitude. No problem. I'm going back to 9.3, which works, and let you smart guys figure this out. I wasted enough time trying to fix a broken distribution.
Hey.... I'm ready to give up too if you continue using 100.1 addresses.... :-)
Oh... I see you already gave up. Ok...
That's too sad ;( If you don't see "eth0" in ifconfig, there may be a compatibility issue between SuSE 10.0 and the PCMCIA NIC.
I have had issues with eth0/eth1 assignment in my desktop with 10.0. In my case a perfectly good eth config through yast ends up with a "nonexistent device" error when eth0 is looked up for energization, leaving only lo and vmnet1 in the ifconfig listing ( i run vmware) . I am convinced it's a bug,
everything works great in the same machine when running under 9.3. Have filed it as bug #120332 in Bugzilla. For me it looks like 10.0 will stay in the "play" partition for a while yet... demitri
I once had a device problem where I had a kernel module being loaded that shouldn't have been. The solution was to do a modprobe -r so that the kernel wouldn't load that module. I'm wondering if you might have just the opposite problem; I, e, a kernel module that should be getting loaded but isn't. I'm way out of my league here, but since you've pretty much given up on this, I thought I'd throw this out as a WAG. I may be completely off in left field here (wouldn't be the first time) but maybe someone with better kernel knowledge could step in and say it this is a possibility.
If you want to set up a static IP on one of your PCs(like the laptop) in the future, pick one of IPs within 192.168.1.52-192.168.1.254 because you said you assigned 50 IPs for DHCP at the Linksys (192.168.1.2-192.168.1.51). For example, -Linksys: 192.168.1.1/24 (DHCP server) -PC-1 : 192.168.1.2(via DHCP) -PC-2 : 192.168.1.3(via DHCP) -PC-3 : 192.168.1.4(via DHCP) -Laptop : 192.168.1.52(static)
This is the way to keep all devices happy campers.
