Have had Firefox crash on me a lot lately and log me out. Not encountered any other problems updating since switching to KDE 4.3 think this has something to do with the repos? Usually good at figuring this stuff out on my own but having trouble with this one.
Have tried:
zypper ref
zypper up (worked to update most packages but still get error above)
rpm -vv --rebuilddb
Once you have the above, run a system wide unconditional update. You’ll have some conflicts to work through. if you can’t figure it out, use the expert button to save it to file and then post it here.
Started updating on Monday via yast. Did an update unconditionally. Left only the previous listed repos for kde 4.3 enabled. Disabled and removed refresh on all the rest. Yast tells me I have 4.75 GB to download. It was hanging saying the package wasn’t found and would have to do a retry to get it to download. ( not sure what is causing the network problems only running yast and occasionally Hulu while waiting, no other resources taking up network. )
First time the update exited and thought it was done (was almost completed last time I checked) . Went to do a second update to see how to manually fix the errors I had on the first try and Yast has the 4.75 to download again. So am trying again.
Had some errors that I’m not sure on the first time. Say 98% was downloaded. Got Bad checksum on :
(* Should I just accept these the second time around ? )
PythonQT
QT4-qtscript
Libqt kde
lib QT webkit
Got package not found:
KGPG
kdf
kdessh
kde4-printer
kcalc
ark
Skipped them after retrying a few times in hopes of manually finding the problem and downloading the correct version before restarting.
Am I doing this correctly ? or is there a better way that you would suggest.
Thank you for your help
and got the following errors when clicking on unconditional update

Been very happy with suse and really don’t want to frag my system. Did once before and it was a great learning experience. Was very impressed on how easy it was to recover/update from the command line, something that is somewhat lacking in XP.
Thank you for your help where should I go from here.
