[opensuse] Software Updater - Error
Every time I start KDE I get the following error message. It has just started happening in the last week or so. Anyone has any thoughts?

SuSE 10.2 has problems with the YaST online updater, possibly other methods as well. I had it go south on me once -- reinstalled the whole OS (keeping, of course, my /home, /opt, /local, and /var filesystems), and YaST self-destructed again. I'm just sitting with my 10.2 in it's original release state, and just waiting for 10.3 to come out....(even with no patches, it's still 100's of times safer from malware than LOSEblows) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I'll try that.
only much faster. If you do not use the search engine beagle (Who does?) remove mono also. Mono is best at turning core2duos into heat engines.
Not surprising. Anything inspired by Microsoft (even independantly developed, like mono, to IMITATE an MS product) is suspect....
OpenSuse10.2 without mono is an excellent rock solid release. Hopefully Novell can put those Ximian folks into good use elsewhere.
Any group who chooss such a ridiculous identity for themselves should not be trusted....look at the unhappy results which they have already produced.... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Yes I know all about it. I reported the same bug nearly 2 months ago - still no resolution yet. I am taking a huge guess here that you are also or have used suspend to disk with perhaps minor errors. Will have to wait for Novell to resolve. However you might like to add to the bug and upload your ZMD and yast log files https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=246142 The error message is number 5 from memory Scott eddieleprince wrote:
