Problems with Intel Wireless 4965 Card — Update

I wrote earlier that I was having problems with SUSE Enterprise Linux 10.1 and my wireless card working.  I thought it worked out of the box w/ Ubuntu but I was looking for a different network card.  The Dell D830 that I have and use with Kubuntu is the Intel 3985 and not the 4985.  This card works fine. 

Now with the newer card and using 8.04 I can’t get the wireless card to work correctly.  I’ve googled and googled and can’t find a simple and easy step by step guide to get this card to work.

 

Any help

Frustrations w/ OpenSuSE and enabling SSH access

Altiris runs the agent and works w/ SuSE so I downloaded OpenSuSE 10.3 and installed SSH.  Altiris conects via ssh to install the application in a push install.  However you need to have ssh installed and running correctly.

SO I installed ssh, both the client and the server through Yast and figured that was it.  I can ssh locally to the box, however from either any of my VMs or my host I cannot ssh to it.  I can ping to the box, just can’t ssh to the box.  And nothing on #suse or googling can help me out.  i have disabled the firewall  as well and still can’t access it.

Please help
