Hi! My trusty, old Windows NT box finally died last week. After reading a bunch about "Linux for the masses", and not wanting to spend $thousands on Microsoft software again, I decided to install Opensuse's 11.0 operating system. I bought a new PC with an AMD cpu, downloaded the whole Opensuse dvd using Bittorrent, and after a few confusing attempts with the installer, got everything up and running. Following the online documentation, I've set up Software Updates to keep up to date. When I tried to use the Yast application, I was getting some errors. So I used the Terminal to use the Zypper command line application. This is what I get as soon as I try to upgrade: zypper up Reading installed packages... 2 Problems: Problem: patch:libxcrypt-109.noarch conflicts with libxcrypt-32bit.x86_64 < 3.0-14.2 provided by libxcrypt-32bit-3.0-14.1.x86_64 Problem: patch:ConsoleKit-132.noarch conflicts with ConsoleKit-32bit.x86_64 < 0.2.10-14.2 provided by ConsoleKit-32bit-0.2.10-14.1.x86_64 Problem: patch:libxcrypt-109.noarch conflicts with libxcrypt-32bit.x86_64 < 3.0-14.2 provided by libxcrypt-32bit-3.0-14.1.x86_64 Solution 1: do not keep libxcrypt-32bit-3.0-14.1.x86_64 installed Solution 2: do not install patch:libxcrypt-109.noarch Choose from above solutions by number or skip, retry or cancel [1/2/s/r/C]: I've tried to find out what to doo from the documentation and online searching, but no real luck so far. I honestly have no idea what "libxcrypt" and "consolekit", why there are conflicts already, or what "Solution" I should choose. I'm a little frustrated & concerned that this is happening so soon after I've installed :-( Can someone please help me understand what to do here? -- Mil -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
