	I managed to fix the problem after playing around for a little
while. It seems that there is ether something wrong with dhclient or that
it is configured wrong. The solution that I finally used was to download
the dhcpcd tar ball. It was suprisingly easy to install. All I had to do
was modify a few of the start up scripts that come with suse and
everything is working great now...
