I am a new user in Linjux (OpenSuse). How can I configure Wireless in my notebook??
Welcome to openSUSE.
We need a bit more information to be able to help you. What version of openSUSE are you running? What WiFi card does your laptop have?
Hi. I am using OpenSuse 10.3 How can I check what is my wifi card?
Make sure you reply to the list, not just to me. GMail is not "mailing list aware", so you have to fix the To: address before you send. If you don't know your WiFi card model (assuming it is a built in WiFi card, and not a PCMCIA WiFi card), one easy way is to look up your laptop model at the manufacturers website. For example if you have an Acer Aspire 7720Z, you can go to the Acer website and you will find that this laptop has an Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG. Once we know that, someone here can go about giving you the right information about setting up your wireless. Telling us your laptop model will also help... sometimes there are tricks for specific laptop models that people have discovered and documented somewhere on the internet. Essentially there are three possibilities with wireless in Linux (I'm being very general here): - there is a native Linux driver, and you can simply use YAST to set it up - there is no native Linux driver, but you can get it working with ndiswrapper and the Windows drivers - there is no native Linux driver, and ndiswrapper does not work either, and you're stuck with tinkering and likely no WiFi until you go with an external WiFi solution (PCMCIA, USB etc) Almost all current laptops can be setup using the first or second solution.
