If anyone can refer me to info about this problem I shall apologise and
look it up but I can't find anything in the archives or by Google. I am
trying to install a non-PnP NE2000 clone in my opensuse 10.3 setup which
I plan to use as a gateway/router for my home network. YaST2
occasionally seems to add the card (and by the way the 'Choose from a
list" button referred to in the help info seems not to exist in the
latest version) but the configuration I use gets applied to one of my
other cards, and rarely persists past a second boot (the module, "ne" in
this case, no longer gets loaded).
I have tried to put the module in /etc/sysconfig/kernel, and the
parameters in /etc/modprobe.conf, after much research. And written an
"ifcfg-ethx" for my new card. This sort of works, though most of the
parameters in the ifcfg-ethx file get rejected at boot, presumably
because they are being parsed by the wrong programme.
If anyone can tell me where else I need to put information about my card
for it be properly integrated into the system, this would be very
helpful. Another problem is that when the module is installed it does
not seem to deliver a name for the device which then can then be
displayed (like D-Link DE-220T) - I don't know whether this is relevant
to yast not finding the card even when I load it on boot.
Many thanks for any advice,
