Default Mirrors for suse-OpenOffice updates?

Are there any mirrors for the following site:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/Open...-i386/2.0.3-1/

I've tried for 2 days to get the update but after about an hour of very
s-l-o-w downloading (sometimes 2 kb/sec) I get an error saying that the
file could not be read and to try later.

Thanks I'm trying it now.
Wierd thing is, when I went to the page in SeaMonkey, it had all these
music icons next to the files.

Thanks Malcom,
When I tried to use Yast to install it, Yast gave me the error message,
"the following package have not been found on the medium
OpenOffice_orOpenOffice_org" and refused to do anything further after that.

I just downloaded it and when I tried it, all I got was the error message:
"The following packages have not been found on the medium
OpenOffice_orOpenOffice_org" and Yast refused to do anything further when I
clicked ok.

This is the second time I've run into this. I wonder what is wrong?

I have had the same problem on occassion. The fix for me anyway was to
right click the RPM, choose "open with KPackage" and then choose Install
in KPackage.

Worked for me anyway.

Thanks! That's worth a try. I'll let you know if it works for me.

Just a thank you. I'd been looking for an rpm version of OpenOffice 2.0.3
and just used the above site. Everything appears to have installed and is
working. Update 2.0.2.

Thanks again for the link

Default OOo 2.0.3 won't install

I've tried with Yast and I've tried with Kpackage. This is the error I get
with Kpackage:
error failed dependencies
OpenOffice_org = 2.0.2-7.1 is needed by (installed)
OpenOffice_org-kde-2.0.2-7.1

I have both of these installed and I want to upgrade to 2.0.3.
I don't get it. This is such a weird problem.

When I try to install with Yast, it says there's no media!

Am I supposed to uninstall the 2.0.2 version first? I don't remember having
to do that before.
