Hi!

I won't say I found SuSE 9.1 less stable than 9.0, but it didn't
support my PCI network card, which 9.0 supported fine. Infact, when I
had 9.0 installed on one partition, and 9.1 installed on other. As
soon as I installed 9.1, my NIC stopped responding! I tried Ping.
While sending or receiving ping, the NIC light did blink, so there was
some activity, but there was no output on console; and it said 100%
packet loss. I removed 9.1, and did a fresh instal of 9.0, which is
working fine now, without any problems with the NIC.

The funny part is, both 9.0 and 9.1 identifyed my NIC as Myson Surecom
EP-320X-S.
The NIC's driver floppy says it's: Realtek RTL8139/810X Family PCI
Fast Ethernet Card.
The drivers for linux on that floppy read: Myson MTD80X Based Fast
Ethernet Card.

I'm a bit confused now...

How come both 9.0 and 9.1 identify it as Myson Surecom EP-320X-S?
On that, under 9.0, the card works fine, but under 9.1, it gives
problems...could this be because of unsupported kernel 2.6.4 in 9.1?

Other than this, I think 9.1 is absolutely fine! (I miss the latest
version of k3b, now that I'm back to 9.1!!)

Regards,
Kapil
