mdemers883 Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Well, anybody that has seen my previous mandrake threads knows that I've never been able to get my SiS900 onboard ethernet to work with mandrake. I tried in 9.1 and 9.2 but with little success. Recently I've been using SuSE9.0 with no problems, was running smoothly. I"m still a linux noob, but I'm better than I used to be. So I was a bit bored today and already had the mandrake 10 ISO's downloaded so I figured I might as well give it a try. Eth0 failed on boot (always happens to me :lol: ) So I think configured it in harddrake. After restarting the network and restarting X it still wouldn't work. So, now I have to ask you guys for help...as usual ;) Here is the output of lspci: [mark@localhost mark]$ lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS 645xx (rev 03) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS 530 Virtual PCI-to-PCI bridge (AGP) 00:02.0 ISA bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]: Unknown device 0963 (rev 2 5) 00:02.1 SMBus: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]: Unknown device 0016 00:02.5 IDE interface: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 5513 [IDE] 00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] Sound Cont roller (rev a0) 00:03.0 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.0 Controller (rev 0f) 00:03.1 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.0 Controller (rev 0f) 00:03.2 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 2.0 Controller 00:04.0 Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 10/100 Ethe rnet (rev 91) 00:0b.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live!

Any ideas of how I should approach getting my connection to work? As always, any help is appreciated. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdion81 Posted March 15, 2004 Report Share Posted March 15, 2004 I don't know if this works or if you've tried it but I recently installed MDK 10 CE on my machine (AMD 1700+ on a ECS K7S5A board (has a SIS 900 NIC onboard)) and the Network worked fine I then wiped the machine (to dual boot win2k (so that I could run Auto Gordian Knot)) and installed MDK 9.2. When I installed 9.2 the network did not work until I turned off ACPI in services and in LILO. I guess something in ACPI in the 2.4 Kernel conflicts with the SIS 900 (Works fine in the 2.6 kernel and windoze) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
