Unfortunately, eth0 did not appear so this rev is both

If it's e1000, note the removal of e1000 from the rawhide kernel:

- Disable E1000E driver until bz 459202 is solved.

Just to be clear in this thread - the affected driver is e1000e. There is a separate e1000 driver which is unaffected and is still enabled.

Simon.

I don't know what that driver's got to do with the subject, but I have a few bob[0] to chuck around.

I've decided for reasons we needn't go into here that one of my systems should undergo a conversion to opensuse.

Opensuse 11.1 is in beta right now, and I thought to try that as a suitable alternative to rawhide.

There's a note about it: "DO NOT RUN THIS ON SYSTEMS WITH THIS INTEL GIGABIT NIC."[1] It might destroy the card.

Basically, it seems to be any card using that driver.

Although mine is not listed (in my DC7700 the NIC's integrated on the mobo), it does use that driver, so I decided, "Perhaps I won't try that." fwiw Opensuse 11.0 runs fine, and apparently has a running Dom0 XEN.
