The skge and sky2 drivers replace the sk98lin driver, so I'd give them a try. Trying to reconfigure the network interface with system-config-network it complains about the missing sk98lin and no skge or sky2 are suggested. In /etc/modprobe.conf, changing the line "alias eth0 sk98lin" to "alias eth0 skge" did the trick for me. Strange enough, one FC5 machine of mine did the change automatically, while another FC5 machine had to be changed manually. I made the changes suggested by Richard Körber: In /etc/modprobe.conf: changing the line "alias eth0 sk98lin" to "alias eth0 skge" Did indeed do the trick. This is no longr a problem. I made a mistake about the machines. The machine that needed to be changed manually, is actually running FC4 (not FC5 as I stated in comment #3). So it seems to be an issue with FC4 only. Resolution as NOTABUG seems to be a gross overstatement. I guess FC4 is going to legacy any day now... WONTFIX maybe? |
