Check if the NetworkManager package has been installed. If
not, install it.
The NetworkManager service will appear in the Services
module of yast. Switch
it on. You can also do that from the command line using
chkconfig.
Things should be working now. To be honest, I have never
used the
NetworkManager setup and I am not sure if there should be
anything else,
besides this. But one thing I know for sure - you need the
NetworkManager
daemon running...

What do you mean that the classic setup is not working? Do
you mean that
network cards are not recognized or that you were not
satisfied with the way
settings are to be changed?
If your cards are not detected and configured properly maybe
this is a lower
level issue (driver) issue.
Try installing and running the NetworkManager daemon and if
you still don't
have any results, please post some detailed info, like dmesg
output for
booting (also found in the /var/log/boot.msg) and lsmod
output.
Good luck and best regards!
