Oops, maybe I'm wrong .. is this a 10.2 thing? I am doing it under 10.1. Thanks for the suggestion. Halt! Stop! :-) :-) .
It *IS* a 10.1 "thing". LOL! :)
Hey, the '10.1 "thing"' is no laughing matter you know.
But there *will* be a RC1 for 10.2 and by now there should be one because when I posted my message Pascal stated that he will have one for 10.2 "in a few" hours.
What I suggested is that you run the (correct) 3 lines again because there are no problems with installing RC1 of 0.50 for SUSE 10.1. Unfortunately things are now hosed sufficiently that smart won't run enough to do the 3 lines. Pete is probably in the same situation as am I. So I've now tried to back up to the older smart package.
I did: rpm -qa | egrep -i smart
and that shows only "smart-beta-0.50rc1-2.guru.suse101" as being installed. So I uninstalled that (had to unlock it) and then re-installed 0.41. Once 0.41 was reinstalled I went to an su console and:
smart update guru && smart install smart-beta <success> smart update <success> smart install smart-beta-gui smart-beta-ksmarttray smart-beta-addons
SUCCESS!!!
"Wonderful!", as Dr. Zoidberg would say. Now that you have zapped whatever you had installed and (re)installed the 0.50 RC1 I wonder if you also wiped your original list of channels and may now have to add again any that you previously added yourself? Just wondering... Cheers. -- "If the Iranians were to have a nuclear weapon they could proliferate." George W. Bush 21 March 2006
