Do you really mean that YaST > Software > Software management (and using e.g. the search function, or Patterns) does not show any software packages at all?

--------------
and ( Ndiswrapper howto - openSUSE )part of this guide(network configuration) is not for suse 11.1
for example:
Code:
After installing ndiswrapper, open the Yast Control Center (yast2) and go to the Network Devices tab on the left side. Then click on the Network Card icon. This will bring up the Network Setup Method wizard. Accept the "User Controlled with NetworkManager" default and click Next.
there isnt Network Card icon there is only :
modem
ISDN
DSL
Network Settings
