I have a machine running 10.3 + Gnome that I don't want to run the automatic updater when a user logs in. I've searched for a way to disable the updater, but can't seem to find anything - except a posting where someone asked how to do it, then replied he had done it but didn't say how:-( The KDE version has an option to turn it off, but Gnome doesn't seem to.
Cheers,
In a console, as user, run gnome-control-center. Under System, click on Sessions.
In the Sessions window, under the Startup Programs, uncheck opensuse-updater. Also, under Current Session, highlight it, if it is running and choose Remove and then Apply.
To test, logout and login. Do it all over again and verify that the updater did not start in the new session.

Thanks, that worked first time! I'd forgotten about the Sessions CP. Cheers, -- Ian gpg key: http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~imoore/no-spam.asc
