Today I received my 10.2 x64 DVD from Cheapbytes. When I tried to upgrade from my 10.0 to 10.2, the dependency checker seemed to hang.
I had that problem, too. After some more iterations of trying, I eventually used the menu to select other sets of packages ("KDE Desktop", "QT Development", ...). In fact I selected most of the available sets there. The problem with the empty window disappeared, so I at least could upgrade. I have had numerous other problems since, though. The biggest problem is that my machine does no longer run stable any longer - it crashes once or twice every day. I have not yet been able to find the reason for it. Another problem is that the driver for my network card (sky2) seems to have bugs; it stops transmitting data every now and then and only starts working again after stopping eth0, rmmod'ing sky2 and reloading it again. I do suspect that these two problems are connected, but I don't have any proof (yet). I'll try to connect a serial console (hoping for any Oopses and things like that) during the next days. Frankly, OpenSUSE 10.2 has been one of the worst experiences since I first started using SuSE (which was with version SuSE 4.2).
