Hot Add vNIC to Suse 11

hi guys

I really did not know where to ask this I alredy used some linux forums but no answer and since I know Suse 11 is kinda popular in Virtual enviroments

I would like to know once a vNIC is added how to discovery it in linux

I found this

http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1010787

but the kudzu command does not apply in Suse any other idea?

thanks a lot
