First post, from a semi-newbie OpenSUSE'r.

I have a fresh-like installation on my work laptop, a Dell Lattitude D600 - all works well except the wireless but I'm not so concerned about getting wireless working (yet).

I also have 10.3 up and running on my home workstation (w/AMD64), also without problems.

Except... on both machines, OpenSuse Updater applet seems to be stuck on one or two packages. Currently on the laptop, it's asking me to update the "libqt4" package, v 4991-0. I let it do the update, it happily does so, then refreshes it's update status - and says the module needs updating.

This was also happening with epiphany, but I just uninstalled epiphany and it's dependent packages outright, since I'm happy with Firefox and generally run KDE only.

Can anyone suggest how I can resolve this? What might I look for in the underlying configuration stuff that could help me understand why it's repeating?
