If your "local" mirrors are okay for the core, and you get the extra stuff from elsewhere, problem solved? I thought the problem was that your "local" mirrors were also pretty poor, bandwidth wise.
No. I don't see many core updates to 42.3 these days. I do see updates to kernel_stable and the various other photographic stuff that I actively use that isn't in the core. Oh, and the KDF stuff! The more remote sites, the ones mirrorbrain sends me to for resolution of those matters, are the ones that deliver single and double digit download speeds.
And a simple script based around ping/traceroute tells me nothing about how the server at the far end can actually deliver.
Yes, run a wget on an ISO to get a useful impression.
So we are back to sheer combinatorial volume of doing that for every site that mirrorbrain _might_ direct me to for each repository I use.
or *just* add known *good* dl sites to your repos and not the opensuse url(s), *just* to repos where you continually experience problems. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
