2.3.9 Registering <strong>SUSE</strong> Linux<br />

The registration and activation <strong>of</strong> your product is a precondition for technical support<br />

and product updates. If you skipped the registration during installation, you can register<br />

later with the help <strong>of</strong> the Product Registration module from S<strong>of</strong>tware. Before you start<br />

registration, prepare your contact e-mail and registration key.<br />

In Include for Convenience, select whether to obtain some <strong>of</strong> the necessary information<br />

from your system. This simplifies the registration process. If you want to see what is<br />

required to register your system or what happens with your data, use Details.<br />

2.4 Hardware<br />

New hardware must first be installed or connected as directed by the vendor. Turn on<br />

external devices, such as the printer or the modem, and start the appropriate YaST<br />

module. Most devices are automatically detected by YaST and the technical data is<br />

displayed. If the automatic detection fails, YaST <strong>of</strong>fers a list <strong>of</strong> devices (model, vendor,<br />

etc.) from which to select the suitable device. Consult the documentation enclosed with<br />

your hardware for more information.<br />

IMPORTANT: Model Designations<br />

If your model is not included in the device list, try a model with a similar designation.<br />

However, in some cases the model must match exactly, because similar<br />

designations do not always indicate compatibility.<br />
