Today I wanted to check SLED, so went over to this page:
http://www.novell.com/common/util/langselect.php?referer=http://www.novell.com/products/desktop/howtobuy.html
select English in the language combo, then click the “Please Choose your Country” combo, the minute i click the combo my system logs out with no warning. happens every time I tried and I tried for many time for the past two hours.
someone has an idea whats going on?
Just a few quick questions -
Can you also please give your output of:
zypper lr -d
I use gnome, firefox and I just updated with zypper dup yesterday.

Are you in a country that has business restrictions with the USA? If yes, it will drop you. It
should give a message, though. Or simply not list that country.
Otherwise, it works here.
Or you might perhaps have some plugin in your browser that impedes scripts, or cookies, java, flash…
Hold on. Your entire session logs out? You mean gnome, kde? Something crashed badly. Forget the
above. Look in the session-errors file.

I’m not in a country that has business restrictions with the US.
and yes, the entire gnome session logs out just like when you choose to log out the system.
where is the session-erros file?
looking at the messages log I see it is full of messages like:

Try changing all your repos to 99 except packman which you can leave as it is
The run zypper dup
Thanks for the reply.
I must ask why? why change all to 99? isn’t that official repos should be high priority before packman ?
Default for repos is 99
Packman can be higher (lower number) but it’s not essential. It can be 99 too if you use the package switcher
But you have changed all your repos and they are wrong. Try as I say, if you can, I say that because ‘dup’ may present with some questions you find difficult to answer. But you should allow vendor change to Packman.

Your home. .xsession-errors.

Irrelevant for this.

This could be related.
What session manager are you using?
What packages you have from what repos? Maybe your system has things from packman or contrib that
break something. Mixing somethings is not safe. Check.

Dunno, suspicious.
