I think changing both interfaces to dhcp4 should solve the problem for Gustav.
I tried to edit the interfaces in Yast Network Devices. However, because I am using networkmanager (or wicked, not sure), the interfaces can not be edited unless I select to configure with ifup (I can not remember the last time I had to do that). So I went to /etc/sysconfig/network and found only ifcfg-wlan0 and ifcfg-template, none for eth0. I edited the wlan0 file and changed BOOTPROTO=dhcp to BOOTPROTO=dhcp4, rebooted and it had no effect. I read the ifcfg-template file. If I understand correctly, this is used when configuring the network with ifup. So perhaps that is why it did not work. As I mentioned in a previous post on this thread, I edited the file /etc/gai.conf but with no effect. I can try my hand at configuring the netwrok devices with ifup and configuring my network connections via ifup, but as a regular user who is also visually impaired, tis is getting extremely frustrating. I am having periodic and regular kernel panics on 13.2 because I can not get the intel graphics working right on it, so that is why I installed Leap. On Leap that problem is solved, but I can not migrage my day to day desktop to it because of this problem. Leap has been the most frustrating release since 6.3 - for me. Thanks for everyone's help, particularly Per who has approached this very systematically, Gustav. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
