Updates Not Broken

Posted by: Anonymous Coward on May 25, 2006 02:43 AM
Just wanted to mention that the information regarding the updater being broken you got on IRC is wrong.

SUSE 10.1 has compulsory registration in order to receive updates.

Use YaST and select Software/Online Update Setup (or Configuration, I don't have my 10.1 box in front of me). You'll be prompted to submit information to Novell (any or all of which can be ommitted). After submission, an update source will be added to you Installation Sources and you'll be able to get updates. Automatic Update notification via the system tray will also become active as well.
