OK, let's keep going at it. What's the output of
 # cat /proc/chandev
on the Linux side (1) when you've freshly rebooted it, (2) after
you've caused the chandev settings to take effect (whether you
use SuSE's rcchandev, echo a read_conf to /proc/chandev or
whatever) and also (3) after you do the "modprobe qeth"?
