I'm having some problems with my new SuSE 9.0
network
install.
http://sdb.suse.com/ has nothing interesting. http://hardwaredb.suse.com/ claims one of the TNT2 is "unknown" and the other has full support. Are you using the "nv" driver?
SuSE 8.2 (w/my NVidia TNT2 32mB) starts out with the 'nv' driver, and once I d/l NVidia's driver it goes with 'nvidia'. I installed the NVidia driver under 9.0, but nothing change for the better.
I'm not so sure if this IRQ reassignment under 9.0
is
really the problem anyhow. I popped out the
firewire
card (ohci1394 above) so eth0 could grab IRQ 5 all
for
itself, but X still dies.
X does use the network, but you can test whether eth0 is a problem by using the network from the console before X starts. ping, lynx, ssh or something. Does it work?
Yep. I did a little browsing w/Lynx. I could also ssh into the problem box.
My video card is a NVidia TNT2 32MB / AGP. It
more or
less worked find with SuSE 8.2.
I guess if you have bought the SuSE 9.0, then you get some support from SuSE themselves.
You got me there. I freeloaded my copy.
Thanks, Eric
