I just installed 10.2. I am using KDE as the default. My questions:
1. Installation Source. During the installation, I was prompted to add an installation source -- http://download.opensuse.org/10.2/repo/oss. I continued only to get the message that "an error occurred while creating the installation source. Details unknown source type for http:// ...etc. I tried this twice; no luck. What is the significance of this failure? Is there some way to fix it?
Network troubles maybe? I just installed 10.2 on a laptop and all the update stuff worked perfectly (unlike 10.1)
2. "music" on logging on and off. How do I turn that loud sound off without messing up the general ability to hear music or talk over the net? I can't find the KDE log on manager.
Open the kde control center, then Sound and Multimedia->System Notifications
3. The machine seems quite a bit slower than it was under 10.0. Is that just a feature of 10.2 or can I do something about it?
Slowness, a feature of 10.2? Hardly. You're most likely suffering from the beagle build in. It's all a matter of personal preference, but IMHO beagle uses far more system resources than it merits. I didn't appreciate the awkward pauses caused by beagle during my online gaming, so beagle was euthanized and removed from my laptop.
