Which version of SUSE 10 are you running? I used to use SUSE regularly up until about 9.3. When 10.0 came out, Novell managed to completely cock up what had been a good configuration tool (YAST) and I stopped using it. I still have copies of 10.0, openSUSE 10.1 10.2 and 10.3 which I can fire up and play with if necessary. and you get back to me with further details.

That's a very kind offer which could have been very helpful but we have now sorted it out.
After yet another web search I saw a mention that the wireless modules (rt73usb and rt2x00usb) my brother was using for the USB wireless adapter could have problems when using encryption. I suggested he turned off encryption and try again and, lo, it now works properly.
