Kde 4.2 and repository

Hello

I am using suse 11.1 with kde 4 desktop.I am a newbie in suse.So i need
some help :slight_smile: I think that my pc doesn’t make the updates
correctly.Because i have installed suse in my pc 5 days ago and it
hasn’t made any update yet.Also in my pc there isn’t any message for the
update of kde desktop.Is this normal?

Hi,

open Yast, Software installation. Choose Installation Source and have a
look in OpenSuse Update. Do you find this repository? Do you see
installed and non installed update packages?

Greetings

Michael

P.S.: Regarding installation of KDE4.2: you have to add following
repositories (use this as URL under Adding repositories in Yast):
‘Index of /repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Factory:/Desktop/openSUSE_11.0’
(http://tinyurl.com/5mxwaf)
‘Index of /repositories/KDE:/Qt/openSUSE_11.0’

First if you have installed libdvdcss from Videolan, disable that repo.

In a terminal go su

type:

zypper ref

now:

zypper up

Of course you can. Open YaST and you will see modules to install/remove
and update your software.

There are two kinds of updates. Security fixes are official updates and
you should have some icon in your panel that checks for them and tells
you if there are some available.

Updates from repos, such as KDE:backports, packaman etc. You use those
at your own risk. ‘Updating KDE and other software via YaST - openSUSE’
(http://en.opensuse.org/Updating_KDE_and_other_software_via_YaST)

Another note: The repos given above are wrong for your 11.1
installation. If you want to upgrade KDE 4.2, use
http://en.opensuse.org/KDE/KDE4 and http://tinyurl.com/b46cx3

Blue a certain YES.

Green a certain ??

Red = NO

The rest, you must have added somehow.

If you want to have updates to kde4 from build service, but remain
stable you could add

KDE4_Build_service_Stable_4.1.3
> ‘Index of /repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/STABLE:/Desktop/openSUSE_11.1’
> (http://tinyurl.com/72r3ru)
>
> ‘Index of /repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/STABLE:/Extra-Apps/openSUSE_11.1’
> (http://tinyurl.com/7gvvud)
>
> ‘Index of /repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Community/openSUSE_11.1’
> (http://tinyurl.com/9xfv63)So my final recommendation would be:

OSS
NON-OSS
UPDATES
Packman
Mozilla
Nvidia
and the kde4 repos above

**Make sure you have the updater running in your tray if you prefer
that kind of method.
