Hi guys,
- I've experienced this odd DVD behaviour for a long time. This is what I do...
I try to install som sw from the DVD. It fails. I then insert a standard CD (not DVD) with some photos and stuff on. It gets recognized and all. Eject. Insert DVD -and install...which works now.
It's a long time ago I gave up understanding what's going on. This oddest behaviour was present in SuSE9.3 and is in SuSE10 also. It may even have been present in SuSE9, 9.1 and 9.2 as well. I just don't remember...
The behavior may indeed have been present before 10.0 (now that I think about it, it cropped up in 9.3 once or twice, but I didn't do much upgrading in 9.3, so it was just an anomaly then). I'll try the CD thing. Do you mean that you leave the S/W update dialog active while you insert and remove the CD? Or do close YaST, do your thing with the CD, then replace the SuSE (whoops, I mean SUSE) DVD and re-commence the YaST software install/upgrade?
