I was able to get it working with a little bit of this and that finally. I added the edge source in yast to get perl-gtk installed: http://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-edge/inst-source/ once that was installed, I was able to choose the videodvd from packman in yast and it installed. upon trying to run it, it would pop up and disappear. So I ran it from a terminal and it was complaining about missing: Can't locate Locale/TextDomain.pm in @INC I used mcpan and installed the Bundle::CPAN and Locale::TextDomain. After that, the program fired right up. I have not tested copying a dvd yet as I am not at home and doing all this via remote desktop. But it looks like it is working now.

Maybe you could try apt, but Im not sure if there is a working version yet. Those who know please answer ....now.

I've heard that there are several versions of Suse Linux 10. There's an open source version which does not contain stuff like Adobe Reader and some drivers. But the retail version contains these things. Is there a free version that also contains non-open source software? Or are these reserved for paying customers?

Yes, there is version which includes non-free software and it is called evaluation version (but it doesn't evaluate of course). If you want to download it, search for SUSE-GM.iso's not SUSE-OSS-GM.iso's.

Or if you only want the popular plugins (Flash, Real, Adobe) - they all do RPM versions that you can install, links are in my blog for 3rd Oct, along with a little[1] package that will set them up for Moz/Firefox for you.

Genetically Modified, you see they grow the CDs from an engineered form of amoeba. Oh no, that's just a dream I had after late-night pizza, it's actually Gold Master.

Hi:

Special mushrooms

Where can I download them? Could I use apt? ;-) Regards

I think, it will be a bit harder to build some mushrooms. There is various docu including sourcecode on the net, but you will have to compile them yourselfs ;-) -rauch

I think people are sooo happy about SUSE 10 GM that it's making them heady and drunk, just by thinking about SUSE 10 GM, holding it in their hands, exploring it with their fingers etc etc etc ... Sound like something we know? ;)

Gold Master. When companies distribute boxed versions of their products, they send the master copy to the printers in a gold plated disc or whatever. So this is called a Gold Master. In the present context for us people who download the CD/DVD image(s) it means nothing more than "final release" - that is to say, no more 10.0 releases will you have. Next release will be 10.1. 10.1 alpha is already out, incidentally. S:R)

Those packages are reserved for paying customers from what I gather, but take a look at this article from osnews.com: http://www.thejemreport.com/mambo/content/view/178/42/ Christopher Rayala wrote:

Have you entered them in YAST as INstallation sources, or do you download each file?

I had the same after entering them as an instaltion source. My guestimate is that it either is looking for things that are not (yet) on the mirror I use or that the 10.0 is slightely different and both packman and guru need to rebuild their repo's.

I would have to agree that they need to rebuild their repos, when i try to get packages for x86_64 it gives me i586 packages, which i don't want. so Packman folks if you are out there please update your packages on your repos so that we can all benefit. If you need someone to compile packages let me know. -Cameron
