I use the same network controller and recently encountered problems when I installed additional OS's on my PC (currently at 5). Previously I only had Win2K, but after installing WinXP-SP2 and WinX64, I discovered that whenever I booted into either Mepis or Debian after booting WinX64 or XP, the RTL8139 chip doesn't work. The only way I get back on line is to reboot into Win2K, then either Linux distribution after that, and the RTL8139 works again. My guess is that the XP and X64 Win drivers are altering some configuration settings in the controller that make it incompatible with the Linux driver.

I manually install the default driver using yast. But no result .
Can any body tell me how to install driver in suse linux 10.1 and also my network card working fine with the windows os on the same machine.
So no problem with the network card.
Thanks in advance
