This is what you'll enter into YaST as a software repository. Only the darned thing doesn't work, at all....
You'll get:
"Unknown Error: Downloading metadata failed (is YUM source?) or did not accept remote source. Aborting refresh"
A few very kind people on the NX-machine list has been very kind to help. All to no avail.
not a surprise, this is not a freenix problem
fir me the error message is quite clear, but I read this list from the beginning :-)
any install source for openSUSE must have some sort of "metadata" (in short a list of available products). If there are none, your URL is not good.
so said, I don't know why your URL is wrong (it seems good at first glance), may be there is somthing wrong in the directory?
right now, if I had to do that, I would go inside the i586 folder, dl the rpm there and install then from my drive, but there is probably a better way (is it ?)

I quite agree. I download the -rpm and do (as root) rpm -Uvh the-rpm-file.rpm This gives no errors, but does not upgrade the FreeNX server... eh? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
