I think I'm confused again <g>. Just upgraded from 10.0 to 10.1 and am trying to get used to some of the changes that apparently occurred.
The new update process has me baffled. The zen-updater icon tells me there are no updates, but when I go to yast2's online update, a ton of patches are listed, some with checkmarks, some without.
Which one should I believe?
I had the same confusion. Actually both are in agreement. In 10.1 YOU shows all patches and the ones with blue or black checkmark are already installed and up-to-date. (stop your mouse pointer above the name of the package in the right pane and it should say that the installed and the available versions are the same) If all patches showing have just checkmarks, hitting "Accept" will just close the window without saying anything (which also confused me). When there are new patches in zen-updater, opening YOU will show the symbol of recycle (or "z", depending how you look at it :) ), which means that the package is flagged for update. You should see the pop-up note on the right-hand window saying that the installed and available versions are different. Then hitting "Accept" actually installs the patch.
