Problem of Nic Realtek conflict between Fedora and XP

Article title: Nic Realtek conflicts between Fedora and XP. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

Previously, Windows XP was reinstalled. in order to save time, a Ghost version was directly installed. However, after that, you can go to Fedora, but you cannot access the network, but you can see the Nic through ifconfig. Unplug the network card, enter Fedora, shut down, plug in the network card, and then enter Fedora, you can access the internet again, but as long as you enter Windows XP again, Fedora can no longer access the Internet.

After some understanding, it is generally because the system will write something into the NVRAM of the NIC, maybe something written by the two systems, slightly different, and some conflict occurs. Go to the Windows Settings Manager and check that the NIC driver was created in April July. I guess there may be a problem with the driver in Windows.

So there is a solution:

1. download the latest Realtek RTL 8139 driver for the entire October May 21.

2. in Windows, update the NIC driver in Windows.

3. shut down, unplug the NIC, and enter Fedora

4. shut down, plug in the network card, and then enter Fedora. then, you should be able to access the internet normally. if not, simply configure it.

5. if you enter Windows, you can access the internet normally. if you enter Fedora, you can also access the internet normally.

The problem is solved.
