Then a zypper up I opted for zypper up, but the kernel was in the list of packages NOT to be upgraded. :(
Bob, Next best thing is to fire up yast, from the left-column choose repositories from the drop-down. Highlight your kernel:/HEAD repo, then: Packages -> All listed packages -> update if newer version is available. (your zypper up probably choked due to 'kernel-source' being replaced) If all else fails, I usually just download the new kernel files I need into a directory, then I do: rpm -Ivh *.rpm (check the errors to make sure that it is just choking on kernel-source or some other easily explainable file dependency that you are going to replace anyway) Then when you have satisfied yourself, do: rpm -Ivh --replacepkgs --replacefiles *.rpm or just rpm -Ivh --force *.rpm (--force is just shorthand for --replacepkgs --replacefiles) -- David C.
