caf4926 · September 25, 2010, 4:18pm

Now get me the repo info we need to replace that broken Packman repo
opps -sorry

caf4926 · September 25, 2010, 4:19pm

as su

zypper rr 2

caf4926 · September 25, 2010, 4:21pm

I had to edit the post above as I see you already have another packman repo
It’s the #2 that is the problem though

mram51 · September 25, 2010, 4:24pm

AHHA! You’re a GENIUS! and now I feel like a complete and utter dweeb for the time being… Fixed!
Thank You from the bottom of my old cruddy shoes!

mram51 · September 25, 2010, 4:28pm

This begs the question of how in the world did it get broken in the first place?
I suspect it was when I was trying to install something that didn’t want to fit…maybe trying to do something impossible with wine (which i have never gotten to work)
in any event I do thank you as much as thanks can happen and thanks for being awake at this early hour… (Well, not so early now, but for me it’s EARLY! I’m an old night owl. )

caf4926 · September 25, 2010, 4:31pm

Not your fault
The repo is down. Just like a website can be down, inaccessible…- Does that make sense to you. SO the updater was throwing a wobbly with it.

Incidentally, I see you have been at the Oneclick codecs installer and it very kindly added duplicate repos for OSS and NON-OSS which you can remove.

happy to help

mram51 · September 25, 2010, 4:49pm

Well it’s good to know I didn’t screw myself for once. This old age stuff is way over rated and makes me forget more than i ever learned it seems. LOL

Thanks again.

mram51 · September 25, 2010, 5:27pm

Problem has returned… Now it’s a different id locking…

mram51 · September 25, 2010, 5:30pm

woops…my bad… I still had it open in the background… duh… I’m feeling like a regular Rhodes Scholar today… lol

benjaminosis · September 26, 2010, 5:01am

@ benjaminosis

Dude with a list like that and you can’t figure this!!

zypper rr 2 (means remove repo number 2) which if the troublesome repo were number 2 it would have worked.

But in your case it should be

zypper rr 29

caf4926 · September 26, 2010, 5:11am

To add back a working packman

zypper ar -f http://packman.unixheads.com/suse/11.3/ packman

benjaminosis · September 26, 2010, 4:53pm

This is the second time you save my butt! Super noob here. Very thankfull!!
