Description Stephan - 2006-04-01 16:10:09 UTC

After fresh installation of beta9 I setup my internal wlan-card for WEP with ifup (NetworkManager don't work at the moment) 

After restart my system network doen't work I start yast again and I see double entry of my wlan card (see attachment) The second entry isn't configured.. If i setup this card again.. it works.

couriously /etc/sysconfig/network

It seems that the card works with module hostap_pci but yast decides to use prism2_pci because it is first in the list :(

Comment 5 Stephan - 2006-04-17 20:21:54 UTC

btw i can reproduce it with 10.1 RC 1 after install and restart I have 2 entries..

Comment 6 Stephan - 2006-05-05 19:53:13 UTC

with factory install today (update) I have only one entry for my wlan-card.
The prism2_pci is loaded and works with ifup. (NetworkManager don't work here...) Should I use the hostap_pci driver?

Comment 7 Stephan - 2006-05-25 14:40:07 UTC

also with final 10.1 I have 2 wlan entries

Comment 8 Pascal Mathieu 2006-08-24 07:10:46 UTC

The bug also happens with wired network adapters. I've just installed SUSE Linux 10.1 (final) and I got the exact same issue with a Marvell 88E8001 Gigabit (integrated in a Shuttle SB83G5 motherboard). 

The 2nd copy of the adapter appeared after the 2nd reboot after a fresh installation (right after the 1st online update). As recommended, I selected everything but the kernel update for this 1st update. In Yast, I had to remove the 1st entry and configure the 2nd one in order to have a network connection again. The problem has not occured anymore since then.

Let me know is you need more information.

Reassigning to the new maintainer of yast2-network.

Comment 10 Stephan - 2006-11-11 10:57:17 UTC

Comment 11 Stephan - 2006-11-19 16:47:42 UTC
