zypper and yast cannot resolve ww2.ati.com , but chrome and firefox can - this is not an ati upgrade problem, this is a zypper config problem .
I am a total Linux newb and I need help resoling it - please
I don’t think its a problem with zypper as such. Return to your thread here:
http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/hardware/476730-display-keep-turning-off-2.html
and execute the command
host www2.ati.com
ok - thanks
# host www2.ati.com
www2.ati.com is an alias for wpc.658C.att-acdn.net.
wpc.658C.att-acdn.net has address 12.120.162.146
Regarding zypper, lets have a look at your configured repos:

I note that the Packman repos are for 11.4, so you might want to correct those. The next thing to try is to disable the ATI/AMD repo, then try refreshing again.
zypper clean
zypper refresh
Any errors reported?
zypper clean and zypper refresh ran without error however, if you mean remove
“ATI/AMD-FGLRX | ATI/AMD-FGLRX | Yes | Yes |99 | rpm-md | http://geeko.ioda.net/mirror ”
then, yes I can, but yast pretty much won’t load because of the www2.aticom failure to resolve issue
yast finaly loaded with the same error I have been getting but there are no ATI/AMD repo’s visable that I can see but I still get the error saying the it can’t resolve www2.ati.com
Sounds like a problem with the cache.
This is probably a sledgehammer to crack a nut, but
rm -R /var/cache/zypp
then
zypper up
# zypper up
Refreshing service 'ati'.
Unexpected exception.

I thought you’d removed the ati repo. Use zypper to remove it
zypper rr 1
The repo I just removed is not the source of my problems - the repo I NEED to remove is www2.ati.com but it cannot be “seen” by yast or zypper but is called to refreh - if that makes any sense
zypper rr 1
Removing repository 'ATI/AMD-FGLRX' [done]
Repository 'ATI/AMD-FGLRX' has been removed.
linux-barl:/home/bilbo #
Well, you’ve just removed the ATI repo. So, are you saying ‘zypper up’ is still causing issues? (Support your comments with code, so that we can observe directly too). FWIW, the repo config resides in the /etc/zypp/repos.d/ directory.
indeed I am saying that -
zypper up was run again just after my last post the results are posted below
