- I'm digging deeper into my (no)sound problem which occured after some on-line autoupdate.
- if I go into YaST and search for kmix, I see that 4.2.1-43.13 is installed but 4.2.1-43.14 is available. Where do you get 4.2.1 packages from? The only 4.2 packages I know of are in KDE:42 and those are 4.2.4.
- if I select to update to this available version, YaST explodes in unfilled dependencies, it wants to DOWNgrade LOTS of packages. So i don't touch it. Make sure your KDE repos have a higher priority than your oss and update repos, i.e. lower number. If the prios are set correctly, a sudo zypper dup should update you to the latest KDE packages available from your repos.

Thanks A LOT! - I'll get back with a solved if this cures it. But it indeed seems very likely. My repos priority were messed up. Fixed it now, will keep you posted!
I did as instructed - it downloaded A LOT of stuff and gave me a somewhat newish desktop. With small padlock on all icons and so. But after running the icons just once, it's gone and looks normal. Nearly, at least. But my sound is still gone. So I thank you for the very valuable hint with the ordering of sw repos and the zypper dup command. Very handy indeed. Two questions, though..on my desktop I've got an old Konquerer as the default 'home' browser, I'd like to use Dolphin for that,- how to? Finally, any hints as to how I may debug this sound issue that just came up after the last on-line update? Sound hw is definetely ok, Windows plays sound, Knoppix plays sound and all. My sound hardware appears (from BIOS) to be a 'Sigmatel 9200' thing. From dmesg, I grep for 'sound' and I get: ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:699: hda-intel: get_response timeout: IRS=0x1 ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:1314: hda_intel: Codec #0 probe error; disabling it...

From lsmod piped through grep for snd, I get:
