nic
 
well, i'm no expert, but I had success with modprobe and the nic driver name 'modprobe ee100pro' in my case. Then reboot, etc.

as root, try this in command line
modprobe r8169

then configure network as usual see whether the card is detected.

hi. i have been try it. but not success, too.
i try in YaST screen. i can see the network card.
but it don't detect in interface ( not have interface eth0 ).
i added again in YaST screen by manual.
then i can see file /etc/network/ifcfg-eth0

but when type "ifconfg -a". the list display lo and sit0 only.

i use command "ifup eth0". it inform error " cannot bring up eth0 ".

during you issue modprobe r8169, any error message?

If not any message, I afraid this driver is conflict with other driver.

issue this command tail dmesg and tell us result.
