Gnome installer

This is a simple problem but nonetheless frustrating when you can’t see
a way round it!

After using Suse with KDE for some time I have recently changed to
Gnome which I find I prefer.

However when I come to install addition packages (specifically Vym)
there opens a long narrow window listing dependencies which have to be
installed as well for the chosed package to work. One is clearly
expected to click on a button somewhere to agree that this should be
done. But the window extends beyond the bottom of my screen and has no
scroll bar. So I can’t install anything not already installed with the
distribution.

I am using Suse 11.0 64 bit

I am sure I am missing something simple but can’t see what it is!

Thanks!

David

Try this from a console (as root):

zypper in vym

If there are dependencies which need to be satisfied, it should list
them for you to accept.
