(In reply to comment #27 from Jim Omura) Are you behind a proxy that requires authentication?
No,
So the only outstanding problem I could see when reading through all this was the last problem where the icon applet was "not working at all", and since mine seems to be working fine, that raised the question whether this bug should be closed.
No. Your updater was working because you were not behind a proxy with authentication. Andrew says in c#26 that the updater applet does not work in such case.
No, actually, I was thinking about asking for more options beyond checking "every day" and "every other day." I am currently using this on a laptop and it just wastes my online time because there is no way I am going to update while I am on a v.90 connection. Do you guys ever remember how slow this can be? :-)
Yeah, you're right.
However, I think the better idea would be for me to uninstall the icon applet, if I can do that without affecting the regular "online update" in Yast2. So I might not bother asking for any changes.
I would do that, too. Uninstalling the applet won't affect yast or zypper in any way, no need to be afraid. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
