I installed opensuse 12.3 but the wireless does not work.
Pc details: Dell Studio 1747 Review
Dell Wireless 1397 802.11g
how do I install it?
IMHO best would be:
a) post in the wireless forums (where the wireless gurus are waiting for nice problems like your’s);
b) read the first sticky threads in that forums so you can provide the information needed.
For a): as we do not like double posting, do you want me to move this to Wireless?
They are usually Broadcom
But let us see the result of
/sbin/lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net
Have you read the sticky at the top of the forum?
In any case go to Yast and set up network using Network Manager.
If that does not work need more info about the wifi card
