Bruce Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Never had one not work before. Did you try it in a different port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caintry_boy Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 Maybe a bad download or a bad burn on the disk? Going to download again on a different machine and will try a burn on this rig... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry1966 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 not a bad burn in my opinion, but probably something to do with this:- http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/72625/why-is-usb-not-working-in-linux-when-it-works-in-uefi-bios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caintry_boy Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 Thanks Terry, enabling the IOMMU Controller did the trick as with the OP in that thread you linked to... I just happen to be using the same Gigabyte 990FX mobo... First time EVER installing Linux and not had the USB mouse work right out of the gate.

caintry_boy Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 Hmmm, seems I need to enable my network first...Yast all looks different than I remember. HALP!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry1966 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) just open a terminal type su and your root password, then enter ifstatus eth0 and see if the network is down, if it is then enter ifup eth0 and it should connect to the internet. the community repos should now show up in yast so you can add packman etc. if it doesn't connect to the internet you may need to install a network driver for it. if the driver isn't built into the kernel and you do need to install the driver, it's this one :- http://www.realtek.com.tw/Downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false Edited June 30, 2014 by terry1966 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caintry_boy Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 Getting this Terry... "Job for network@eth0.service failed. See "systemctl status network@eth0.service" and "journalctl -xn" for details...looks like I need a network driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry1966 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) see my edit for the correct driver, but first thing i'd do is shut down the pc and then restart it, i do believe the network driver is built into the kernel and should just work, especially now you have enabled iommu in bios. http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=295616 Edited June 30, 2014 by terry1966 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) The fix for one opensuse user was......... I have the same FX8350 running on a Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 using OpenSuse 13.1. The solution that worked for me was to edit the bootloader using YAST, the default selection (or the selection you are using to load OpenSuse 13.1 in my case), "iommu=pt" after "quiet showopts". For example: "resume=/dev/disk/by-id/ata-Hitachi_HDS721010CLA332_JP2921HQ1076NA-part2 splash=silent quiet showopts iommu=pt" Now all my USB ports 2.0 and 3.0 are working and my internet networking is working too!. Also make sure IOMMU is enabled in BIOS. I hope this helps someone else. Edited June 30, 2014 by Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caintry_boy Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 Well, editing the bootloader didn't help...even after a reboot. How do I install Terry's driver? < downloaded it on another PC and copied over with USB thumb drive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry1966 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 go into yast, network devices, network settings and see if the device is configured, if it's not, then edit it and configure it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terry1966 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 device name is enp5s0 ?? not eth0, can't say i've ever seen that. try this open terminal su to root then ifstatus enp5s0 post results in next reply, then type in ifup enp5s0 and see if it now connects.

caintry_boy Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 Running this command > ifstatus enp5s0 gives a bunch of response with the end result being "enp5so is up". edit: still no internet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caintry_boy Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 O.K., I edited the configuration so that it's now named eth0 and here's the ifstatus eth0 device: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

terry1966 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) looks to me like it doesn't have a connection to your router to get an ip address and get on the internet, try a different cable, port on router and see if any better luck. the 169.254.7.122/16 address you see is nothing but an internal default address the pc gives itself, and has nothing to do with a real internet address from the router which usually starts with 192.168.x.x Edited June 30, 2014 by terry1966 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
