Try setting a mirror manually and use that. Is there a easier way than mess with server administration? I hit similar problem in Ubuntu several years ago, when asking for help, someone sent me a file less than 3 lines and ask me to save it to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ then it is solved.
You are the administrator, so you have to administrate. It is your job. Go to http://mirrors.opensuse.org/, find a mirror for your version, check that it contains the files, and add that repo directly instead of the default one. Notice that the download engine uses mirrorbrain, which automatically and silently redirects you to a mirror it thinks it is good. If it is not, you may be "pissed". Notice too that browsing with firefox is no proof, you do not get redirected till you do an actual download. And this behaviour changes in every suse version. Else, you might try to activate metalink support (export ZYPP_ARIA2C=1), assuming your version supports it (11.1 on 86, dunno for ppc). - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
