[opensuse-amd64] YOU problem
Hi list, Maybe not the best place for this question, but I'm sure some of you must have the answer: Fresh install of OpenSuSE 10.2 (minimal install -- no X). Network properly configured. Start "yast" in ncurses mode, select "Online Update". It loads the list of installed packages and then reports that no patches are available. Based on a quick look on the site (ftp.suse.com), it looks like some patches are available (which is expected, a few months after the release). Is there some change in Yast that I missed (since the 9.3 version) ? YOU used to ask you which server it should connect to to retrieve the patches, but it doesn't seem to do that any longer. Any help or pointer to the relevant doc is appreciated. Thanks in advance. Cheers. Bye. Ph.

Funny, it was a part of the install on mine (minimal really is minimal).

Run Yast, Software, Online Update Configuration. This will set up an update server for you. Alternatively, you could just add an update server to Installation Source. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 10.2 x86_64 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+help@opensuse.org
