Hello all
I downloaded and used openSUSE-Factory-NET-i586-Build0052-Media.iso to install Factory on 2
machines. Things went a lot better than openSUSE-Factory-NET-i586-Build0050-Media.iso - good
work!

# Net installation

First remark, the Net install went quickly - great d/l speeds!
Second remark, during the installation in the "Running
Internet Connection Test" window, I encountered the following (small) error:
Error
Download failed:

# Initial startup
#######################
# machine 1
On the Gigabyte.GA-EP45-DS5 / CPU Q9550 / 4 Go RAM - the installation finished fine and
basic first startup went well. Everything seems fine.
As a side note, I guess I need to get used to kde4 (I say that because I had a conflit in
yast when I tried to add a "kde3 basic" package... probably my fault...I was looking for a
kde 3 pattern to add to add kde3 as well during the net install but couldn't fine anything
- hint, hint - so I just added a 'kde 3 base' selection and tried that but in the
end I ended up removing it due to conflicts... :(
My didn't sound card - a "Xonar Essence STX" didn't error out in Yast as in previous
versions of opensuse but the son icon doesn't "show up" in the kde4 task manager tool ....
Still some progress has been made.
Note : The "Xonar Essence STX" card is set up as the primary sound cart in "yast2/son"
but when I hit 'edit' - the following message appears 'There are no options available for
this module'
