I understand that there is a problem, and that certain things do not work properly.

I'm guessing you installed OpenSUSE. How did that go? Any difficulties? Any errors?
What happens if you boot up? Any errors? Do you reach graphics mode?
You say it seems to run on safe mode, but also add that it's not true? What makes you think it's on safe mode, and what makes you think it's not true?
Internet, we'll get to that

The Vesa driver is the generic driver. It's quite good though. The Ati driver is proprietary software. I thought OpenSUSE doesn't ship with proprietary drivers (hence it's called 'Open' ). You'll have to install those manually to get full 3D capability on your machine. Until that time, the Vesa driver will have to do.

Ok, that's normal... well it's not really a normal normal, but it happens. The other two will have apps on them you didn't install, or source code, or both. Don't worry about it.

Wireless? Then try a wired connection. Maybe that will work, if only until the system is all set up.

Eh, that is possible with another computer. But I think we first need to get your internet working.

Where i can conf the primary Dns?

That should be somewhere in your menu's.

normal on suse?

Yeah, it's normal on Linux in general. Adjustments to the system can only be made by root. It's a safety measure. Remember that the Gnu/Linux system is very different from what you are used to. That is not to say you wont get it to work, but you'll find certain things are handled differently. You can find some good reading here

You're probably experiencing driver issues. Many wireless cards and 3D cards have proprietary drivers, which do not ship with OpenSUSE. There are two roads from here. Either try a distro that does ship with proprietary drivers (such as Ubuntu) or try to install the drivers manually.

Nobody can guarantee that everything will work though. What kind of wireless card do you have?

Driver for your wireless card

Connection settings are handled by Yast. Shouldn't be to difficult. Did you get your wired connection working yet?
