Hello
Try to configure your interface by hand with something like

ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.250 netmask 255.255.255.0

and look if it comes properly when you make ifconfig -a
This will enable us to see if the problem comes from yast or from the
virtual ethernet adapter.
Don't worry about he inet6 header : it means taht ths interface is ip6
capabled, not that it is ip6 configured.
