I have installed this and it works but often there is only 32bit-versions of whatever. (i386-i686)
I personally just recompiled the source rpm(there were some minor problems, but I don't remember which), as well as took a version of aptitude patched to use rpm from Mandrake - I am very happy now :) Btw, 32bit versions seem to only recognize 32bit packages...(recompiled apt sees both)
Another thing is that Yast wont play correctly after using "apt". So manual runnings of Yast-parts are "my only way".
It seems to work fine for me...Though I see no reason using it now :) Perhaps you're trying to run both at the same time?? Oh, and you'll probably need to either get rid of OpenOffice or install java from 32bit SuSE not to be annoyed by the dependencies. P.S. I'm not sure about transcode, but I do have mplayer/mencoder compiled, although without win32 dll support...
