So you're saying we have to hardcode all of the information in the /etc/pcmcia/network.opts file? _________________________ Joseph A.

Assuming you are talking about a PCMCIA network card, let me suggest something to you. If you used YAST to setup the network card, don't! Remove the card from the basic network setup in YAST, then modify /etc/pcmcia/network.opts with all your network parameters. You can also use it to create different schemes (work, dialup, homenet, etc.) Until I figured this one out, I had a lot of grief with the networking part.

I'm STILL, for the third or so day, trying to get SuSE to run right on my friend's laptop. The latest problem is on bootup, I'm getting "error while executing /sbin/route add default gw 134.x.x.x." So, I went into /etc/route.conf and commented out the line with the default gateway address. I'm not getting the error anymore, but I'm still not able to connect it to the network. With that line uncommented, it seems to load the card without incident.
