It seems the Google-Chrome repository I have in my 11.3 system is no longer working.
The information is Yast is:
URL: http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/x86_64
*Category: YUM
*Is there a newer repository for updating Chrome?
You know 11.3 is no longer supported?
And any repo info should be from
zypper lr -d
You have short support intervals…11.3 runs quite well on my older hardware and will probably stay with it for a while. The 12.2 LIVE CD came up
with errors when I tried it, so upgrading to a later version of OpenSuse is out of the question. If I do upgrade, it will probably be a distribution that
has longer support intervals and is tolerant of older hardware.
That only reads the repository information that is already on my system… the same information I can see within Yast.
I got the RPM of the latest version of Chrome directly from Google, so I deleted the non-fuctioning repository infor from Yast.
There is openSUSE Evergreen if you want LTS (long term support). Or, if paying is not an issue, SUSE Linux Enterprise (Desktop and Server).
Nice in theory, but Evergreen is not supporting 11.3.

But 11.4 (starting Nov 5th) and you can test with a 11.4 live cd if your
hardware is compatible with it, so that would probably be an option to
upgrade to that.

On that note, 11.4 was an okay upgrade for me but
you do have to sort out the nvidia stuff if you have an
nv card. I’m still using 11.4 although I’ve been tinkering
with 12.2 in anticipation of upgrading at some point. Yes
OpenSuSE has short support cycles which keep you on the
upgrade treadmill. It would be great if they had official
LTS versions but sadly no. Still the best distro IMHO and
I really wouldn’t use anything else.
