Normally that would be the opposite of what I want, as it would kill the error 
messages, which I want to receive from cron. But after a bit of tinkering, it 
seems to me that zypper uses stderr for both stderr *and* stdout.

So I have to find a different way to inform me about failed upgrades.

I can post it when it's ready.

Like zypper? :-)

Hmm, never thought of that. Does zypper? Is there a logfile for SuSEconfig? 
Maybe I should call SuSEconfig from the script...
