The other day I got some real good advice about how to set up Packman as an installation source for YaST's "Install and Remove Software". This worked great for installing Mplayer and getting its dependencies.

Robert:
Could you share the exact steps you followed to setup Packman as a YAST source?
Thank you.
Sure. 1. Open YaST Control Center 2. Open "Change Source of Installation" 3. Select Add->HTTP 4. Put "packman.iu-bremen.de" in server name field. 5. Put "suse/9.3" in directory field 6. Click OK 7. Use the "Up" button to move it to the top of the list. 8. With the new Installation Source highlighted in the list, select Edit->Refresh. (This step turns outn to be important -- see Anders Johansson's post to this thread.) 9. Now you can run the "Install and Remove Software" app from YaST to install off of Packman.
