      There is no RPM, the SuSE 9.1 identifies the NIC incorrectly ... so I put
    the following in /etc/modprobe.conf.local

    # ethernet
    #alias eth0 8139too
    alias eth0 r8169

      The 8139too, is the kernel module that YaST wanted to install, instead you
    use the r8169. Restart, and it should be ok.
