In the meantime: Did you installed the sources of the kernel (package "kernel-source<version>)?
I'm not sure how to check that, but I ran Yast online update and installed everything from that.
And what is the output of the following command:
$ lspci
(launched as root!)? We should get the exact name of the included wlan-device. Sometimes. producers change their included components without mentioning it anywhere.
It didn't work with the $ in front but here's the output of "lspci":

Mark,
Here's what I got when I typed those three commands:
The wlan-card is not among it, correct. Beside that, there is no clue in there what goes wrong.
ndiwrapper is loaded when I type lsmod, but the system does not seem to recognize the wlan card still.
Okay. So there seems to be a few problems left :(
What I did up to now: I went at
www.google.com/linux
and searched for "dell 1450 wlan". I got quite some results and reading some of them, I get the impression that it should work. Please have a look at the results of this google-search too.

Greets, Dennis
