  1. I have a new HP zv6000 laptop with a 64bit processor and when I go to install Suse 10.0 it requests that I insert a 'driver update floppy'. The install will not proceed any further and I don’t know exactly what this driver update is. Are they the same drivers that I get off HP's website that make my computer work - such as the mouse driver video card etc... Or are the driver updates something I would need to get from Novell? I am just confused as to what kind of updates they are wanting from me. Thanks for you help.
  2. I have recently installed SUSE Linux onto my computer and have been having problems connecting to my home network and getting online. I am running a dual boot on this computer with Windows XP and SUSE Linux 10.0. The Windows XP can access my internet and can connect to the network easily with no troubles, but if I boot up Linux, then it doesn’t recognize the internet and the network at all. I have a Linksys WRT54G router which this computer connects to get on the network and to get online. BTW: the computer is hardwired in, although I will soon be up[censored] a laptop with Linux and so I will go through this again except with a wireless network and internet connection. I am pretty ignorant when it comes to configuring network setting especially on Linux systems, so if anyone responds to my request for help, please keep instructions in laymen’s terms. Also know that the answer to my question is probably rather simple, I just do not know the basics on how to setup the internet setting and network settings on SUSE or Linux. So can you help me connect to the internet and connect to my home router using this Linux system? And if you are overly patient, would you also tell me how I will need to go about setting up the wireless connection for the future laptop that I will be up[censored] with Linux. The laptop is currently running Windows XP right now and it connects flawlessly to the network.
