I ALWAYS use this method and it has always worked for me. You have to change the version number a bit.
ALSO note that this works for the mirrors which are often faster .

Hello everyone,
I thought about this a while ago and found an answer on suse's kde mailing list.
Open up YaST and go to Change Source of Installation. Add an ftp one, such as this: ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_8.2/yast-source
Use the 'up' button to make sure this is at the top of the list. Then, back at the main window of YaST, choose system update, and and select only update installed packages. There is a details button that shows what is going to be updated, so you can check it out yourself. Since I'm already running 8.2, this didn't update anything except all the kde and related rpms to 3.1.2. -----------------end repost --------------
When I try to add: ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_9.0/yast-source
I get an error message: ERROR(InstSRC:E_no_instsrc_on_media)
What does this mean and what can I do about it?
I encountered the same thing, and I don't think it's fixable. The problem, I believe, is that Yast expects two more directory levels, like so: 9.0/suse/ i586/*.rpm. They aren't there and you can't put them there. Paul Abrahams
