Hello Mikald and welcome to the openSUSE forums.

The Text editor Nano is not installed by default. To install Nano, go to the following Applications:

YaST / Software / Software Management / Search Tab & Search on nano

When the application nano is found, check the block next to the Package name and install nano and you should then be able to run nano from the terminal prompt.

The application ifconfig requires that you have root permissions (and paths) to run. To run ifconfig do the following in terminal:

password: ifconfig

Now, the normal way to adjust or check your networking setup, it is suggested you go to:

YaST / Network Devices / Network Settings

Using the ifup method is the manual way and corresponds to the usage of ifconfig. You can also enable the NetworkManager which can automatically connect when you have more than one network connection or also have a wireless connection you want to use.

Thank You,

You do not need to be root to run it as long as you do not want to change
anything. If you want to run ifconfig just to get information from it call
it as a normal user with the complete path
/sbin/ifconfig

did you not get an error message??
when you get an error message always include it in your help request…

you didn’t but i guess you are trying

sudo ifconfig

which won’t work here…the methods Ubuntu uses for sudo is different
from all others as far as i know…

additionally ifconfig is located in /sbin, and /sbin is not in your
path, so therefore it is not in sudo’s path either…so, here there
are two ways to run ifconfig (and all others in /sbin)

user the fully qualified path name with sudo, like:

sudo /sbin/ifconfig

or 2. become root using this command:

then issue ifconfig

more on this in:

you will find other differences…Debian and SUSE have been on
different paths since the beginning of time…other small differences
between openSUSE and other systems you are familiar with are scattered
around in these:

Sounds like a bad install or a custom install that skipped an important package. I agree with Martin_helm that you don’t need superuser for ifconfig but nano does need to be installed.
It could be that your $PATH is mis-configured or configured for Ubuntu, Mint that excludes the /bin/, /usr/bin/, /sbin/, /usr/sbin/, etc. or .bashrc
Last I hope you installed openSUSE 11.4 from the DVD and not a LiveCD/DVD. IMHO, the installs from the LiveCD doesn’t install complete packages, libraries and tools.

You should see this error message for nano:

If 'nano' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this: cnf nano

meaning its not installed.

Could you run

zypper ve zypper ps

Have you tried using different terminals, Xterm, Gnome-terminal, KDE-terminals, Linux 32 terminal?
