Configuring Netgear's FA20 USB 2.0 Adapter for SuSE Linux 9.1 Professional


Hi,

I'm using SuSE Linux 9.1 Professional. I was originally using a Netgear Ethernet adapter in my PCMIA card slot on my laptop. When I use it, it pops up automatically in Yast Control Panel. (I want to switch to a Netgear FA120 USB adapter.) I need the PCMIA slot for my USB 2.0 card. lol

I know that SuSE Linux 9.1 recognizes the adapter, but where do I go to configure it? I tried going to ethernet in SuSE's Yast control panel and selected USB, but then the system errors and says that usbnet is not a supported device.

What am I doing wrong? I've only had Linux for 2 weeks now and I'm trying my best to learn it.

Thanks,

John Burroughs.
