    Cool How to install .repo files?

    Hi everyone,

    I just downloaded a file that ends with .Repo, I believe it's a repository file. How should I install this type of file and where/which directory it should be extracted or saved to?

    My apology for being a suzee nubbee (Windoz refugee)!

    And thanks a lot!

    Hello caf4926,

    This is the file I got from bugzilla.novell.com regarding a possible fix for a wireless driver problem:

    baseurl=http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/Akoellh:/Kernelmodules/openSUSE_11.2_Update/

    I have not decided to try the fix yet.

    You need to add that repo to your list by the url method
    Index of /repositories/home:/Akoellh:/Kernelmodules/openSUSE_11.2_Update

    Here is a guide on repos
