waterhead Trusted Penguin Join Date: Jul 2004 Location: Franklin, Wisconsin Posts: 3,957	I was reviewing your first post, the one with the system info, and I don't see any wireless device listed. Am I missing something? Is it possible that the wireless is turned off? Try turning it on, and see what happens. __________________ Paul Please do not PM me with requests for help. I will not reply.

waterhead Trusted Penguin Join Date: Jul 2004 Location: Franklin, Wisconsin Posts: 3,957	OK, this appears to be the wireless device: Code: 02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Device 4232 Subsystem: Intel Corporation Device 1201 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 5 Memory at fdffe000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K] Capabilities: [c8] Power Management version 3 Capabilities: [d0] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable- Capabilities: [e0] Express Endpoint, MSI 00 It doesn't seem to be properly recognized. This seems to be a kernel bug, especially a Suse 11.0 kernel bug. I suggest you update to the latest available kernel, or the latest available version of Suse. Try a LiveCD of another distro, like Ubuntu or Fedora. Always get the latest version. See if it works in those. __________________ Paul Please do not PM me with requests for help. I will not reply.
