RE: [SLE] KDE service releases via YOU?

Just tried this and keep getting an error msg:
ERROR(InstSrc:E_no_instsrc_on_media)
Have tried several ways of adding this ftp server to the list, i.e.
splitting the URL across the two fields
Server Name: ftp.suse.com
Directory on Server: /pub/suse/.....
or as just one long string on the Server Name line.
Keep getting same error msg. Any ideas?

Hello everyone,

I thought about this a while ago and found an answer on suse's kde mailing
list.

Open up YaST and go to Change Source of Installation. Add an ftp one, such
as
this:
ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_8.2/yast-source

Use the 'up' button to make sure this is at the top of the list. Then, back
at the main window of YaST, choose system update, and and select only update
installed packages. There is a details button that shows what is going to
be
updated, so you can check it out yourself. Since I'm already running 8.2,
this didn't update anything except all the kde and related rpms to 3.1.2.

HTH,
Mike
