Hi all
I am running suse 8.1 and have a big problem with my network card.
Everything run flawlessly. Itīs a 3com card, got autodetected by yast and run for about 2 month without a problem.
Yesterday the connection suddenly broke and i was not able to connect to the internet again. So run yast, which is autodetecting the card and un- and reinstalled the card. But no connection.
i did a ifconfig, ifdown, ifup, ifstatus... and it told me that dhcpcd is up but eth0 is not active
so the problem: no internet connection
btw i already reinstalled my eth card a few times before, without having such a strange problem and the card is ok because i write this from the same box (win).
here some more info:
i tried to load the kernel module with linuxrc and it said that the module got loaded succsessfully. but still no eth0 active after a
ifstatus eth0 . I also looked into the etc/modules.conf. i did not found a entry for my eth card so i included a
alias eth0 3c90x but still no luck.
so i did a
ifconfig eth0
