You are missing a package: yast2-qt-pkg-2.18.22-1.1.1.x86_64 in mine.
This installed OK, but I think I now have bigger problems
zypper update says everything is OK, but packagekit says there are 11 updates
I disables all the 11.0 repos before running zypper dup
Make sure you only have the oss, non-oss, and updates repos active.
I did that, but when I retried I grabbed the instructions from different page (grabbed factory rather than 11.2) and now SuSE-release says 11.4
Wow! X'-) So you updated to factory instead. Well, what is done is done. Does it work? Or the symptoms you described for 11.2 are in fact about 11.4?
Seems there is also trouble with Firefox, but the older version 3.5 I need for vmware runs
I use 3.6 with vmware. With a trick.
What is the trick, keeping an old copy of firefox is getting bothersome
The plugin installs, but the console does not run by clicking on the web page. Instead, you need a little script that finds where the plugin to the console is, and calls it directly. /usr/local/bin/start-VMware-console.sh +++······················ #!/bin/bash ################################################################################ # Call VMWare Server's Remote Console in a clean GTK setup. # # Author: Holger # # URL: http://shellack.de/info/content/vmware-server-20-console-failure # ################################################################################ # Clean GTK setup for VMWare export VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=yes # Find console executable in Firefox plugins. vmrc="$(find "$HOME/.mozilla/firefox" -name vmware-vmrc -type f -perm -111 | tail -1)" [ -x "$vmrc" ] || exit 1 set -x cd "$(dirname "$vmrc")" && "$vmrc" -h 127.0.0.1:8333 ······················++- I got the script with the package that I use to hack vmware server installation.
