This has nothing to do with it. The /suse/ is superflous, it will fallback to "old style" packages if not used, which is smaller.
Also the source should be marked as "No refresh".
Ciao, Marcus
Sorry, hit the wrong button that time...
Marcus, are you suggesting there is a way to get YOU back without re-installing 9.3 perhaps? It seems mine is constantly downloading new catalogs, but I yet have found the first step of simply downloading the updates to the updater. Is this something I should do manually from the ftp site? I'll try that next, I guess, since I've tried almost every other suggestion on this forum along the line. Someone should write a simple "how-to" and put this entire subject to bed once and for all!
hear, hear !! I bought a 10.1 box. It's now collecting dust on the shelf. The CD's inside are of no use as they contain(??) the terrible YAST/YOU bug. Or is it fixed remotely, so that I can actually install (again) and get it working THIS time? I just attended a Novell First Class course on SLES10/SLED10. I really don't know what's going on inside the heads of the Novell suits, - but the SLED10 desktop is so far away from what (at least) european costumers are expecting, that (my guess) it'll never ever catch on. And mind you, Novell doesn't have that much ammo to spend on this matter...they can't afford the luxury of being fundamentally wrong that many times. I'm terribly disapointed with Novell as it stands. For the moment, I think (after all) that I've spent too many hours learing SuSE. So I can't just dump it. But, of course, one is keeping an eye on other distros, read Ubuntu...
This isn't friendly to us in the modem wastelands of New Mexico!
Thanks. Tom
