How about opening konsole and typing “su - -c ‘yast2 dns’”? That way DNS
module it will be launched.

Are you using “networkmanager” or “ifup” method to handle network card? Are
you using dhcp or static IP?

When you go to the ‘Network Devices’ menu in Yast, the Network Settings option brings up the list of network adaptors installed in your system and allows you to modify the settings for them. There won’t be separate icons for each network card. Click on Network Settings and select your card from the list there. From there, you should be able to continue to follow the guide you linked to.

i’m using ifup and dhcp. in /etc/resolv.conf there were two dns adresses added. i deleted them and its work. thanks for your help.
