Hiya! I use SuSE 9 on my system. But it won't find my mobo's NIC, which is based on the nforce chipset.

Should I download and install nvidia's driver?

h/w:

Abit NF7 w/sound & NIC (NIC enabled, sound disabled)
Athlon 2100@2700
1GB RAM
SB Audigy sound
SuSE 9 Pro OS
3Com 3c905-tx NIC

Thanks!!

Yep, you have to download and install the nvidia driver. I have an Asus A7N8X also with an nForce NIC and it works fine with the nvidia driver.

Do you have a link to what you are referring too? Maybe what I installed wasnt the correct ones as I still cannot get my onboard NIC to work.

Thanks!

KenK2, please do not drag up old threads, tery posting a new thread when you have a question. Eitehr way you'd do a lot better to use the forcedeth driver, no nasty closed source stuff invovled, and now part of the 2.6 kernel.
