Hahahahahahaha

I knew that would work.....

I threaten to install Suse 10.1 after Mucks has complained it's a pile of poop and suddenly, miraculously, Mr Mucks manages to install it ok

And blow me, the thread title's changed too, to reflect positivism instead of our Jock geezer getting the 'ump

Well, our kid, nice to see you managed a clean working install, you just needed the right motivation, yes/no?

Ok, my turn soon, I'll let you know how I get on

Oh no, Suse is great ... they just went 'nd changed the way you update & download fixes, patches and software. AND goofed at it.

First you need to 'fix' it ...

Reboot after, just like Windows.

Thanks Mucks. Hmm. Ain't gonna be as easy as V10.0 then? Oh well, this should be fun

Apparently this "zmd" has bee around for some time, and not many people I've seen on the Linux forums like it ... others, geeks probably, have no bother.

I tripped over that blog researching what the hell zmd was.

Follow it carefully and before you do much else and at least you should then get any critical updates ... it still has problems but I did manage to use it to get all the new KDE 3.5.3 stuff, that is worth getting, it really is faster.

I'll go and try and update the nVidia drivers tomorrow ... not now simple to install for the liks of me, but, I like the look of tiny-nvidia-installer I'll let you know.
