I created a dual boot Win xp /opensuse machine a couple of months ago but for one reason or another didn’t get to work much with it till now. The network worked fine then but yesterday when I booted up it no longer worked.
Using the Yast Network settings does not work for me. It also stops at the next to last setting with a curl error when it goes to write the settings I’ve made. Networking is not a problem when I boot into Windows.
I’ve run ifconfig and lspci and get “command not found”
This is my ifcfg-eth0 file:
BOOTPROTO=‘dhcp’
BROADCAST=’’
ETHTOOL_OPTIONS=’’
IPADDR=’’
MTU=’’
NAME=‘82562ET/EZ/GT/GZ - PRO/100 VE (LOM) Ethernet Controller’
NETMASK=’’
NETWORK=’’
REMOTE_IPADDR=’’
STARTMODE=‘auto’
USERCONTROL=‘no’
I’ve used the connection widget in the bottom corner to create a connection and that works fine but it seems to disconnect after some period of time.
I’m using DHCP wired to a dhcp router to a dsl modem.
Suggestions appreciated.
