[opensuse-factory] SuSE Updater
Hey Group; The KDE "user" SuSE Updater seems to be broken. Every rime KDE comes up it does also. It checks online and then shows a circled "?". Click on it and up comes a error message stating "openSUSE Updater -> " Unable to check if updates are available". Beside it never works and suggests -> Please use Add/Remove Update Sources". Which works but ends up as a dead end. -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email: " n5xwb@hal-pc.org " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb@arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 Did you know?

The updater is not broken...during the Beta period, there is no update server, only the factory install repo which changes hundreds of packages daily...not something you probably want to be doing automatically so the updater has nothing to talk to at the moment. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Incorrect. We have testupdates available... But perhaps you do not have the update source enabled. run "zypper sl" and quote the output here please.
