On both the Asus M2A-VM and M2N-VM DVI motherboard I noticed the following.

I have configured the system to dual boot between windows and fedora. When I switch from windows to fedora, fedora can not get control over the build in NIC anymore. So DHCP can not configure the NIC. A software reboot and a hardware reboot don't solve the problem. The only remedy is to fysically disconnect the power cord wait a few seconds and power up directly into fedora again. As soon as windows boots the problem reoccurs.

What does "Fedora can not get control over the biuld in NIC anymore" ? What is the dmesg saying? The logs? lspci -vvv?

I saw this too on some other motherboards I don't recall the name of.

I tested three M2A-VM boards and found this problem on all three of them. This is 100% reproducible.

It looks like Windows leaves the NIC in a state that fedora can't handle. Anyone seen this? Anyone who has a solution to this?

Koos.
