I keep getting ' can't get package' errors with YOU. Sometimes it will retrieve a partial list others it will connect then disconnect say unable to retrieve a specified package. I checked sdb with no luck. Is anyone else experiencing this ?

If you updated your system, instead of a fresh install, YOU will have problems downloading certain patches. Run YOU and slect only the patch "Fix YOU download problems". After that there should be no problem downloading the other patches. If you want to learn more, this article describes the cause and solution, although symptom is not exactly what I experienced: (just for info, patch does what this article describes as solution) http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/81_you2.html -- Rafael
