From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030225 Description of problem: While I've never had problems with RHL9 and previous versions, networking wasn't working for me on Fedora test1 or test2. I'm using an SMC 83C170QF board, and I'm using a netgear router. The system was just reporting that there was no link present whenever I tried to bring up eth0. The fix was to... $ rmmod epic100 $ insmod epic100 full_duplex=5 I don't know why. Somebody just gave me this hint on IRC.... <xover> epic100 tries to auto-negotiate speed/duplex and if the netgear is locked this will fail. If they have different defaults, you would get no link or other weirdness. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Set up an SMC card and a Netgear RP614 router. 2.Try to boot. Actual Results: eth0 bring up reports no link present. Expected Results: eth0 bring up reports OK Additional info:
