problem with openSUSE internet configuration

**gpx82** · January 1st, 2007, 11:47 PM

Hi I am having some problems configuring openSUSE for
the internet and I would like to know if anyone knows a
link to a guide that can help me. One more thing, I should mention is that on the screen it said server is not
found. I hope some one could help me out.

"on the screen"? you mean when you launch the browser, there's a page that says that?

What kind of internet access do you have?

Also, what modem are you using?

I am using a hdaudio soft data fax modem with smart cp.The message is said when I launch the browser.The internet that I have is sbc yahoo.Also
I can view the error log and post that to see if that helps.

Sorry for the delay.

One question, is Opensuse recognizing the modem in YAST? Are you able to test the modem via a terminal and make sure everything is configured correctly?

The modem is recognized.I have not tried to test the modem, so I will try
that.Then I will post the result of what happened.

please...let us know how you fixed it. It's a good way for us to learn from you so that if the issue ever comes up for someone else chances are someone here will either know it or be able to just link to this thread

I want to make this short and simple. I can not post a reply to your request because it is not related to the topic.Therefore, I will not post anything more in this thread.What you could do is to make your own thread,
and post the information that you or other people have.

P.S. The topic was about opensuse internet trouble-
shooting.I forgot to add that since I solved the problem,
there is no need and reason to continue this thread.

As if letting us know how you fixed the problem that spawned the thread would somehow be off-topic...

IOW - blew out Linux and went back to Windows -lol

Oh yeah... I forgot to add that...
