However, that's hearsay, and quite possibly only causes problems for newcomers, I don't follow any of the threads that closely. It does seem that hand editing /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-whatever doesn't completely work anymore--however, I can't confirm that, I've run into it at random times, and one can get a card working properly with system-config-network-tui.
