I didn't get you.
Do you want to know about repos now or after updating the kernel?

You should remove repo 1,2,3,4,5

The do a general update with

Code:

su -
zypper up

Re: My advice above on the repos:
You do not need VLC repo
Once you have done a general update, see if you can do this:

If you use Gnome is looks like this

ok I update it using zypper up.
But I don't find any different, the kernel version is still "2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop"!!!!!
How can I check if any thing went wong?

**caf4926** · 30-Jun-2011, 19:14

Open a terminal and do this, (post result back here)

Code:

su -
zypper lu

**rahulcvv** · 01-Jul-2011, 07:55

Please post again - result

Code:

zypper lr -d

**caf4926** · 01-Jul-2011, 08:03

You need to remove that entry in the repos:

hd:///?device=/dev/disk/by-id/usb-SanDisk_Cruzer_Micro

Then I think you may need to do this

Code:

su -
zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.4/ updates

Code:

zypper ref

Code:

zypper up
