My mistake.  I meant Eircom free accounts.  If you look at the details on
the linked page, it specifies 1892 150 150.  A friend recently related an
experience to me where he was using the 1891 number and it kept
disconnecting on him until he changed to 1892.

You could verify that the settings are correct by using them in another
operating system.

Certainly not!

I guess that's probably kppp (KDE's dialer program) but I'm not a Suse user
so I'm unsure.  If you can't get that to work you could try installing
wvdial and running it from the command line (see Niall's email) but I would
hope you should be able to get it to work as you are approaching it now.
