What ver of SUSE are you running again?

Have you gone over to the realtek.tw or your m/b vendors site and looked for a a utility that can test your nic? they usually make a utility you can run from a bootable floppy that you run which will give you h/w info and sometimes even test the nic for you. Determine that it's working. Also look for the chip revision version if that utility displays it. Once you have the info, you might also want to check out our bretheren over at Fedora or Ubuntu and see if they got something useful to say. The last time I got my Realtek nic working, it was thanks to posts on the Ubuntu forums. -- cheers, dg <a href="http://opensuse.org";><img style="border: 0px solid ; width: 80px; height: 15px;" alt="openSUSE.org" title="openSUSE.org" src="http://files.opensuse.org/opensuse/en/6/6e/Suselinux-green.png"; /></a> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
