Question : Problem: How to get Realtek wireless card working under Suse Linux 9.2?

I have Realtek RTL8180 Wireless LAN (Mini-) PCI NIC on my laptop.
It works fine under WindowsXP, but it does not under Suse Liux 9.2 (I have a dual boot system).
When I run Yast2 it seems to recognize and configure it. But it does not actually work:
It does not see it when I type http://192.168.0.1 in a browser.
What might be the problem?

Answer : Problem: How to get Realtek wireless card working under Suse Linux 9.2?

1) whole output - starting from processor type, pci attachment down to wlan interface.  It is stored at boot in /var/log/dmesg file
2) This is the obvious solution. Recent Linux distributions can use Windows driver for network cards.
3) Or download ISOs and burn them.

Let me outline easy steps:
1) Get Ubuntu or burn Mandriva One - do they work? You can install one that booted up or install OpenSUSE 10.3 (3 CDs)
If did not work...
2) Get Windows driver into place accessible from LiveCD - like USB flash drive - use it.
If it did not work
3) compile Linux driver from Realtek - that is definetly beyound your understanding.
