sounds like the particular mirror you use isn't available.
try a different one.
YOU (suseWatcher) remembers the last one selected
I checked the ones I have here at work... 9.1 versions used (in YOU) "Germany: SUSE LINUX AG" ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse and the 9.0 versions (totally different list, with only 2 entries) use "http://sdb.suse.de/download" Last succesfull update 22 days ago and the computer is online all the time. For the 9.0 I selected now the other option: "http://sdb2.suse.de/download" ... after a while, I got Authorization-dialog askin for Username and Password! What's this? With empty username and passwd I only got error. Now, the same thing happened for the other option also. Nice one, SuSE! For the 9.1 I selected "Sweden: SUNET" which sould be the closest one (I've had trouble with FUNET, which has sometimes missed some packages). It's now been "Retrieving information about new updates" for 5 minutes. Neither one seems to work. What now? Is this Novell stuff? -- HG
