I think Mark nailed it here.  Check in YaST as suggested.... then
launch KNetworkManager and you should be good to go.  If not.. provide
the info Mark suggested...

On my system, with a default clean install it was set to ifup instead
of network managed - granted I don't have a WiFi card in this
machine... so that might have impacted the configuration on install.
