New to Linux, Wireless problems, help!
Hello, my laptop, an Acer Aspire 5050, recently broke horribly. However, after giving it to an IT teacher at my college, he fixed it, but now the operating system is OpenSuse 11.2 (It was Windows Vista Home Basic before). I have never used OpenSuse, or any Linux before, but everything seemed fine. However, I discovered that I can no longer pick up my wireless internet signal - why is this and what can I do to fix it?! Be aware I am not a computer man, and will not understand complicated technical language- a step by step guide would be nice
Thanks very much in advance.

Set up the card using YaST? I dont know, It was there for Windows, but I played no part in fixing the laptop and installing OpenSuse or Linux. :S
