eth0 has an ip 192.168.0.102 assigned to it.
Had to try and install ifconfig -- no luck:
Don't install that. It is deprecated, and besides, ip does way more for you.

Ruby is a script language that appears to be extensively used in the package management system. The above means you have something else open that is accessing that system, perhaps YaST or the updater in the system tray. Either close the YaST function that is open, or wait until the updater is done.

You won't be able to kill anything that belongs to the system, if you don't have admin rights when you try.

Edit/Find/Search messages (or Ctrl-shift-f) In the popup, select "From" in the appropriate place (default selection is subject, I believe), type your name in the panel, and click on "Search" in the upper right.

I do apologize. I gave you instructions to find them if you are using Thunderbird. I have no idea why I assumed you would be using it too.

Had to try and install ifconfig -- no luck:
Your address is 192.168.0.102. Ip is the current command and ifconfig has been deprecated. However, I prefer it for some things, so I installed it. Either will return the info. To find your gateway address, use "ip route show". You can ping that to see if it gets that far. Then you can ping 8.8.8.8 to see if you're reaching the Internet and then ping google.com, to see if DNS is working properly. These are the first steps when trying to resolve a network problem and why I doubt a computer manufacturer would somehow block ping.
