Description Jeremy Figgins 2011-01-28 16:48:01 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101203 SUSE/3.6.13-0.2.1 Firefox/3.6.13

I just finished installing Milestone 6 of 6 (yes, the "product version" above says 5 of 6, but 6 of 6 is not yet an option as I report this). My SIS900 ethernet is not available, as it isn't listed when I do a "ifconfig". The module sis900 is loaded (as verified using "lsmod | grep sis"). This card definitely worked in the last milestone (5 of 6).

"lspci" identifies this card as a "SiS900 PCI Fast Ethernet (rev 91)".


Reproducible: Always

It seems to be working now. I'll re-open/re-report if it happens again.
