Try installing with YaST and see what errors it produces.

Tonight I was installing some packages and I got the already known Smart freeze on my Suse 10.0 box. After this:

8:Installing autoconf ################################################################### [ 47%]

It freezes. Then I went to another terminal:

# strace -f -p 23016 (...) [pid 23070] read(12, 0xbc6b904, 16384) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) (...)

I can reproduce it. Whenever I try to install this set of packages:

autoconf-2.59-82@i586 libstdc++-devel-4.0.2_20050901-3@i586 automake-1.9.6-2@i586 ncurses-devel-5.4-71@i586 bison-1.875-56@i586 pkgconfig-0.19-6@i586 ctags-2004.11.15-4@i586 slang-devel-1.4.9-127@i586 flex-2.5.4a-297@i586 task-c++-devel-100-1.netmask.suse100@noarch gcc-4.0.2_20050901-3@i586 task-c-devel-100-1.netmask.suse100@noarch gcc-c++-4.0.2_20050901-3@i586 texinfo-4.8-9.2@i586 glib2-devel-2.8.4-3@i586 zlib-devel-1.2.3-3@i586 glibc-devel-2.3.5-40@i686

Could you do a rpm -q of each packacge, e.g. rpm -q autoconf etc. I get a freeze when the same package is installed multiple times. This happens a lot lately, yesterday with gcompris (there were two packman versions installed). Running gcompris is also giving me problems with X, the resolution is changed to a lower one and I can't change it back. This happens with a lot of games that my kids play. This didn't happen with SUSE 9.3 (The only thing that was better in 9.3 compared to 10.0). My videocard is a: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc. G400/G450 (rev 04) Anybody seen the same behaviour?
