hello guys! I've got a Acer Sx with SiS900 onboard lan adapter...which SuSE recognises during installation, but strangely, i see the rtl8139 module being loaded instead of the sis900 module. now, i wouldnt be complaining if it was working, but it aint...i can see eth0 and stuff, but cant hear any replies to my pings. so i do rmmod rtl8139 and insmod sis900, and the system complains that resource is busy.. well..so i shut down networking and _then_ do insmod..it returns without error, but alas! when i start networking it says eth0 - no such device... i have even downloaded the latest sis900.c and sis900.h files from the SiS site and tried to compile in the sis900 driver into the kernel..but still it doesnt configure eth0 at boot time. sigh! finally i'm posting this here..has anyone successfull configured this card?(if u have, are u still sane?) i suspect there might be some options that this card required, but i havent come across_any_ documentation regarding this. Its not mentioned in the white paper written by the blokes from SiS who wrote this driver.. anyway..ANY help is appreciated right now..i've gotta go and get me a Dispirin now..
kishor PS: i havent got any replies to my earlier query about my X problem.....is this Acer Sx such a rare piece? Damn those purchase guys....
