Description Elmar Stellnberger 2006-09-12 12:52:42 UTC 
I have tried to change the mainboard only (from ASUS P2B-F) to ASUS P3V-4X continuing to use all PCI expansion cards.
The problem seems having been related to the IRQ assignement depending on a bios menu setting.
HOTPLUG-OS=NO: no hotplug envents received by Suse 10.1; standard setting
HOTPLUG-OS=YES: hotplugging, but strange behaviour
All hardware identified and installed correct (now best working on P2B-F).
f.e. network card showed "Link detected: yes" by ethtool but could not even ping anything.
my assumption: IRQ assignment problem

Installing Windows on the same machine:
works with HOTPLUG-OS=NO, only! If installed under YES, Windows needs to be installed from scratch with HOTPLUG-OS=NO once again!!

This is not a blocker for the distribution.

Looking at the reports I do not understand what exactly your problem is.  Could you summarize exactly what you did and what problems you encounter?

Btw. please write everything in english.

* what you did: installed Linux
* what problems you encountered: network card and hotplug system did not work at all although the hardware has been recognized correctly by the SuSE-Installer
