Hi, My YAST software manager is not responding and hence I was advised to install smart package manager. I am running SUSE 10.1 KDE on a R52 IBM Thinkpad Initially there were 11 packages that were to be installed. 7 were installed and 4 remain. I have even refreshed the source.. but nothing happends Please guide.. Below is what I get in Konsole

Go to-
and download the 4 smart packages for SUSE 10.1, by Pascal Bleser, for your CPU (32- or 64-bit). You don't need the one with "debug" in its name.
UNISTALL the smart package which came with 10.1 - if you had installed it.
INSTALL the package python-elementtree (use YOU to do this from the 10.1 DVD/CDs).
Then install the 4 packages by Pascal. The latest packages are 0.42.9 BTW with
rpm -ivh *.rpm
They need to be installed as a group of 4 so when you download the 4 packages put them into a directory on their own.
Run the smart package manager and activate the pre-configured channels by selecting the ones which don't have a cross against them.
Then let smart do its job.
Cheers.

Hi, I did exactly what you said. I can run Smart now. Thanks a lot But, now, when I run it, it says YAST2 package descriptions are not loaded. Configuration in read only mode Actually my YAST2 package manager is also not working. I think its broken. So what do I do now -- Puneit Singh Birla Institute of Management Technology 0091-9350832020
