Mark,

I haven't specifically worked on a Hipersocket in SLES10 yet, the few
machines I have that utilize them are not yet upgraded from SLES9->10
yet.  BUT I have had the exact same problem as you with regular QETH
devices.  It seems that YaST doesn't always properly configure and then
hwup the device after setup, so I wrote a script to setup my devices for
me.  In my case I blamed this on the fact that I've mainly been working
with shared Read-Only root machines and the one R/W machine I tried
adding a qeth device to with YaST succeeded.

So, for you to get setup with what you have there..

In /etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.0704...

CCW_CHAN_IDS='0.0.0704 0.0.0705 0.0.0706'
CCW_CHAN_MODE='dontcare'

Then just make sure your
/etc/sysconfig/hardware/ifcfg-hsi-bus-ccw-0.0.0704 is properly
configured, for me YaST had this part correct after I had attempted to
set it up if I remember right.

Finally, just give it a:

hwup hsi-bus-ccw-0.0.0704

The script I wrote just does all the above with sed and some
partially-configured template files.  Hopefully that works for you.  I'm
by no means an expert on any of this, I just went back to my SLES9
machines and did some comparison until I got a device up and running
manually.
