Just to be sure, I connected to the AutoUpdate and caught up with the
upgrades. It now works (not sure if upgrade helped), but the "wlan0"
interface vanishes myteriously (I have posted it as separate ques on the
usenet).
Also, as per sugegstion from one of the post, I have "saved" the YaST
configuration, and I reapply the config whenever I see that the
configuration is misbehaving - it helps a lot. The file /etc/resolv.conf is
automatically changed depending on whether the kernel could connect to the
DHCP or not - and this is disconcerting, since the kernel may be using the
wrong interface to ping the DHCP server. Saving and retrieving the YaST
config can take care of this pesky problem.
