From what you describe, it sounds a little like you had set a static IP
address.

That sounds a whole lot like a Windows user :)

Did you leave out the part when you chanted, "I think I can, I think I can"
over and over before rebooting?

Do you ever get the urge to try a different distribution?

houghi's been around the SuSE circle for a long time,
and if I remember correctly, about as long as I have.
(I still have the 4.3 box). Prior to SuSE, I was using
Slack, from its first release.

I probably have about 20 distros installed on my main
machine ... for me, no other distro compares (it could
be that I'm simply SuSE-embedded :). My guess is you'll
get a similar answer from houghi.
