I have B582 roverbook with on board Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 191 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter. I have just installed openSUSE 11.1 (x86_64) and everything is fine except LAN. If I try to ping gateway I see something like this… “Destination Host Unreachable”. But when I boot under Windows everything works fine.
Here I can provide You with some additional information.

Does anybody knows, how can I make it works? It seems to me, that sis191 does not support in SUSE
what gateway ip are you trying to ping? It looks like eth0 has an ip assigned to it which would imply that it is working. You may need to manually set your nameservers and gateway by using “yast network” and set the applicable fields.
As long as 10.30.84.1 is your gateway (or at least a running system connected to the same LAN as 10.30.84.42 is on) you should be able to ping it. I think we may taken that proved by the fact that you can do the ping while Windows is running.
As long as you use IP addresses, DNS is not important.
BTW, I see you have no deafult gateway. Is that as intended?
Your idea of the NIC not supported is not backed by the fact that ifconfig sees it up and running.
Maybe I am clutching at straws, but try taking down the other interfaces.
as root do:
#ifconfig wlan0 down #ifconfig wmaster0 down
Maybe it is trying to reach the gateway through one of these disconnected interfaces for some reason? After you issue the above commands see if you can ping your gateway again.
Is your network secured? For example is it using 802.1x? When you are booted to Windows and looking at the properties of the Network is security configured, like the use of certificates for encrypted transmission?
That is the root of your problem. Your network is configured to only allow authenticated devices to communicate on it. Your windows box has a device certificate installed which is used to authenticate the device and allow it to talk on the network.
DHCP works outside of 802.1x, so SUSE gets an IP but then is not allowed to talk on the network because it does not have the required certificate. I am not familiar with configuring 802.1x in Linux, but you will need to get your hands on a device certificate to install first before you can do anything else.
Hm… I do not think so. I have installed the same distributive of Linux (opensuse 11.1) on another desktop compute and there is no problem with LAN. Here is some additional info about another computer

Please, note that I do not configure and install any certificates manually on another computer, I just put bootable DVD on to DVD-rom and install openSUSE and LAN start to work without any additional configuring. It seems to me, that it is not the root of the problem.
Yes, other computer was on a different network, but I use my laptop in 192.X.X.X network also, and problem the same. From laptop I can not ping anything and from desktop I can ping everything. There is the same Linux distributive on both computers (openSUSE 11.1)
