Lo, im new here and at linux too.

The prob is: I don't know how to config my internet connecting.

I have a dual boot machine with XP and Suse 9.0.. I can see my network, for example i can browse on my other pc in it's shared docs, but i cant use the internet, while i can when i load XP. Also, from linux i can see my router @ 192.1268.1.1. It's just.. can't even visit google lol

At the hardware / network card settings, ive set it up with int. IP as 192.168.1.9 as i also did in XP.

But.. I dont know what to do with this information.

Do you guys know what i should do to get online?

Thx in advance, Khazar

First off: can you ping?
If not, try it by both ip address and hostname
Try these and tell us if either of them gets 4 "Reply"'s
<EDIT>
If the IP works, but not the host, there's a good chance your ISP's DNS addresses need to be put in /etc/resolv.conf
</EDIT>

If it's a manually configured IP, i think you just need to say somewhere that 192.1268.1.1 is also your gateway and nameserver
I'm not sure how you do this in suse, but it should be easy

I did the command and i got 4 replies indeed.. all in 140-150 ms.. 0%packet loss

From which? The hostname or the IP or both?

The IP, the hostname didnt work, it said unknown host name or smthin..

I can ping sites, and i can also approch other pc's in my network, its just the internet that isnt working (obviously the settings are wrong somewhere, but i dont know where i can set it up properly.

When i go in konqueror to that folder etc.. ic the file resolv.conf.. when i click it i get to see this:

Nothing else.

I know the DNS codes, but how do i put them in this file?

Replace x.x.x.x with your ISP's DNS server's IP Addresses and remove the last line.

Ok that's np, it just says i dont have permission to overwrite/save to that file.. so i gotta login as root, but how?

got to a terminal
type this:
That will launch GEdit in root mode so you can edit it

What is a terminal and where can i find it?

I think u mean the konsole, so i typed it in the konsole, it said (after filling in passw.):

Where it asks for "Password:" type your root password
try replacing "gedit" with "pico" or "kwrite", or other text editors

su = Switch User
It's what you use to invoke root
su -c = run a command as root
the command is contained within the " and "
so:
su -c "kwrite /etc/resolv.conf"
means run "kwrite /etc/resolv.conf" as root

You can use the 'su' command to change to the root user when in the shell.

If the router is a cable/dsl router, it may have a web setup interface that you can use to get the ISP's DNS numbers. Point the brower to 192.168.1.1 . For linksys, leave the username blank the first time. I think the initial password it 'admin'

Or you could set up the computer to use DHCP, temporarily, restart the network (rcnetwork restart), and use the ifconfig command to display the DNS numbers.
And yes, the gateway IP should be 192.168.1.1
