Hello!

I am currently dual booting with Windows XP and SuSE Linux 10.3. I do not want to dual boot anymore and I just want Linux in my computer.

I have been on Linux for quite some time and have a great understanding of it for being on Windows my whole life. I have used Ndiswrapper to get my online to work so far, every thing has been perfect but the annoying part is when I shut my computer down then turn it back on and boot into Linux, it will not recognize my wireless drivers unless i first boot into Windows and then restart back into Linux. Now I have tolerated this for a while but its starting to get kind of annoying.

By the way I am using for my wireless a WPN111 Wireless Adapter, by Netgear for my online.

So if there is anyway I could help get this resolved any help would be most appreciated.

try going to yast -> network devices -> network cards. click on your card & select edit. from the global options select activate on boot from the drop-down menu & user controlled. see if that helps.
