Hi All
I have a IBM A30P Thinkpad on which I am attempting to configure SuSE 9.2=20
after successful installation but am unable to configure internet connectio=
n.
The issue is that I have dial up at home, WiFi in our office, and DSL in my=
=20
clients office. Home, office, and client are locates some 10 miles apart.
I have not been successful in configuring for either dial up or WiFi while =
at=20
home or in office. Configuration of DSL has not been attempted yet. I get=20
devices to configure but for some reason am unable to access web. Assumptio=
n=20
is that failure to configure is really failure to understand configuration=
=20
procedure. Help would be appreciated.
I understand that there is something called YaST->System->Profile Manager=20
which is suppose to allow one to accomplish what I need.
Does anyone know of a procedure or "How To" that describes how to configure=
=20
the system using the Profile Manager and what packages need to be installed?
