- Networkmanager unable to connect to unencrypted networks:

- Ressource consumption of the package manager:

I'd like to add to this that I just tried to add factory to rug:

rug sa --type=yum 
http://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse 
factory

The progress bar stopped at 33% - but my harddisk, cpu and ram (512 megs) 
consumption ran amok - using at a time all my 500 megs of swap - I powered 
off after 20 minutes as I couldn't get it to stop - not even 
ctrl+alt+backspace would do it. 

Am I the only one to experience something like this?

Generally it seems to me that the packagemanager - whether using rug or yast 
is considerably slower and more ressource demanding than before - and it's 
not like it was blazingly fast then.

Another thing is that I had already added factory as a yast installation 
source - but it does not show up in "rug service-list" as I believe it 
should.

The urls for yast and rug seem to be different as rug needs the last /suse - I 
wonder if this has any relevance.
