From: Amnon Feiner on 26 Oct 2005 17:19 I read quite a few posts suggesting that you set your source to Packman, since they have better updates which Novell lack of. Is it true? And if so, how exactly is it done? I currently point to a local dir for the installation source. TIA -- Amnon Feiner http://www.woodcontour.com Solid Wood and Stone PC Peripherals.

Strangely it still misses the MPlayer plugin. No idea why as Packman knows it is missing. > http://www.opensuse.org/Additional_YaST_Package_Repositories Finally somebody who posted this URL. I was already wondering why nobody ever did and I myself am too lazy to do it. ;-) -- houghi Please do not toppost http://houghi.org You are about to enter another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind.

I'm sure I had it already, but on this new one I must have used different repos which do not have it? -- Vahis |
