Manually updating with zypper clears the problem temporarily, until the updater finds the next set of updates. I did find a suggestion in a forum to try unchecking the "keep password" box when entering my password to update, and that did solve the problem, at least for today. This only started happening for me recently, and I've been using 10.3 since last December. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This only started happening for me recently, and I've been using 10.3 since last December.

Yes, I can confirm: The problem appeared in the last weeks, not since release of 10.3. The workaround with the 'keep password' box is a workaround, but not a solution (think about newbies using openSUSE!) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

A workaround was to remove tab characters from the command that is passed to kdesu. (See: bug 389765) It is the first time that I've heard about a similar bug on openSUSE 10.3. Due to the fact that opensuseupdater works on zillions of workstations I guess the cause for this bug is different. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

OpenSUSE updater applet indicates update(s) => I try to update this way => nothing happens, after some time updater indicates update(s) again.....and so on (neverending). The update repository setting is correct, update via zypper or YAST is OK. After such update(s) applet indicates "No updates available" - that means it is able to recognize the right update status, but it isn't able to initiate the update process... What is interesting: I have 10.3 on two machines (desktop and notebook), the problem appears only on desktop... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I just tested it on a recommended update--I can still only install through the updater if I uncheck the keep password box. It would be less annoying if I could permanently uncheck that box, but it keeps defaulting to being checked. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
