No, there is no line for nameserver in the resolv.conf.
Then, it is obvious that you will not be able to connect to anywhere until you have them.
Yup, agreed.
Change your network configuration in yast or wherevever you are doing it. Make sure you select to get automatic dns from the network, if your router is configured to do so, or otherwise, write a DNS that works for you; usually your ISP provides them.
In this case it probably should be nameserver 192.168.1.1 for the router (since all other machines in the house use that, and they all work fine). The really odd thing is...all the other openSUSE installs in the house are fine. My own laptop with 11.2 works as well (with the right namesever entry)... but this one machine with a default install is missing the resolv.conf settings and/or network config settings for automatic DNS? Plus it's only on WiFi that this happens... wired works fine and the nameserver entries are added correctly. How is that possible? How can one install go wrong on something simple like this with a 100% default install when other installs we did are fine? That doesn't make sense to me. I can't see anything in the install clicks that were done that would turn off autoDNS.... and if it works on one default install on a netbook, I would expect it to work exactly the same on a second install on an identical netbook.
