In SUSE 10 unload the tulip driver and then load the dmfe first. This sounds like a driver issue. Looking at the docs this does not appear to be a tulip family driver. If you have the kernel sources installed look in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking for more information. On the SuSE 9.x box show the results of lsmod | grep tulip. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
