OK - you don't have any ethernet interface active...

try (as root)

ifup eth0

and see what happens (try running 'ifconfig' command again to see if
interface activates and gets an ip address)

It's likely that YAST has a configuration panel to the network adaptors
and can turn it on as well...I don't know SuSE well.
