[10-19-11 09:19]: This is known problem and has to do with ifup not ignoring an error when setting power saving options. See https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=716652
Has been fixed, but I don't know whether it is in factory yet.
It is not in 12.1b1 but editing /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-wlan0 works. I now have:
ifconfig wlan0 wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1D:D9:44:2C:5C inet addr:192.168.1.5 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::21d:d9ff:fe44:2c5c/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:8846 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:69 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:2076963 (1.9 Mb) TX bytes:9330 (9.1 Kb)
thanks
