Just installed 11 on my IBM TP. Great! I'll be a major SuSE distro.

The system identifies (correctly) the PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI
Adaptor (built in) as eth1.

I can configure it using the grey circular ikon in my taskbar (is that
Knetworkmanager?), I can configure it using YaST if I so desire. I
configure it using ordinary WEP encryption, not very safe but fine for
starters.

No connect. Never. Ever.
The little wheel turns around - and then gives up.
First guess: You didn't install ipw-firmware .
