From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212 Description of problem: onboard SiS900 ethernet no longer works. It worked in 7.x and 8.0. Not sure what the problem is. The /etc/modules.conf has it in there: "alias eth0 sis900" and the module is loaded: Module Size Used by Not tainted sis900 16492 0 At boot time get an error message about "failed: no link present. Check cable?"... and yes, I've checked the cable... works fine on reboot into Windows and worked fine on previous RHL installs. The phoebe install was a fresh install (did NOT upgrade) and I haven't done any messing around to break it (nor to fix it). /proc/pci says: Bus 0, device 1, function1: Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 10/100 Ethernet (rev 130) IRQ 12. Master Capable. Latency=64. Min Gnt=52. Max Lat=11 I/O at 0xcc00 [0xccff]. Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xcfffb000 [0xcfffbfff]. /proc/pci also shows a SiS 56k Winmodem (Smart Link HAMR5600 compatible) (rev1 60) also on IRQ 12. Repeated attempts to "service network restart" result in same error (failed: no link present. Check cable?"). Not sure where to go from here. Suggestions?!? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try Booting System 2. Seems to initialize device but can't obtain an address 3. Worked fine in previous RHL versions Additional info:
