Hmmm. So, if I update that file, then Yast should be able to offer it as a network device to be configured? But possibly I may need a kernel upgrade if one of the other drivers (e.g. r8169) can handle it? I note that in hwinfo --netcard, my 3c905 has a hardware address, but the Realtek does not. What does that tell me about things? Thanks for the replies.
