Did You set up your DNS in openSUSE properly as well ? Is it the same as on Windows ?
To check you DNS settings in Windows use the following command in cmd :

ipconfig /all

To check DNS in openSUSE use the following command in terminal :

cat /etc/resolv.conf

Check and compare if they point to the same ip address.

Best regards,
Greg

Hi
You also need to add the gateway (router) IP address as well as above.

This Howto goes over setting up your interface in detail:
http://opensuse.swerdna.org/susenic.html

Also make sure the IP of OpenSuse machine is different from that on the
Windows machine. If OpenSuse and Windows both get their IP from the router
via dhcp this should not be a problem. But if you set static IPs on both
they must be different (e.g. 192.168.0.10 and 192.168.0.20)
