Thank you for the links... Do I understand the info in the 2nd link correctly that if I do a: sudo zypper ar "http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/repositories/home:/dmitry_serpokryl:/Enlightenment-cvs-core-metapackage/openSUSE_11.0" Enlightenment Then simply be able to use zipper to install E17 AND update my installed E16 without future "zipper updates" breaking them??? And do I also understand that after I did the above, doing a: zipper search enlightenment or zipper search e16 or zipper search e17 would find more good "e" stuff than it finds now?? And about the links on the first site that talk about one click installs... I'd me much happier adding these sites as zypper repos and let ONE package manager handle any/all dependency issues. But I'm not so sure what would happen if I did for example an: sudo zypper ar http://opensuse.ca.unixheads.org/repositories/X11:/Enlightenment/openSUSE_11.0/X11:Enlightenment.repo Or perhaps an: sudo zypper ar "http://opensuse.ca.unixheads.org/repositories/X11:/Enlightenment/openSUSE_11.0/X11:Enlightenment.repo" Enlightenment {using the above zypper ar example from the *2nd link coupled with the mirror found for my IP at the "kind of 'official' " repo listed in the *1st link ( *quoted from 'sda' above) } I've never added repos that the dvd installer didn't put in zypper's config files before. I did learn to zap the one that made it want me to find and insert the dvd every time I wanted to do an zypper install... But I'm really not so sure about how to properly add a repo????????????????????????????????? One thing though. I noticed a lot of attention being given on those links to booting e from a guilogin manager.... PLEASE tell me that there aren't any files I might zipper from these sites that could maybe break my *chosen method of booting to a console login and then as a user running startx from a script that first copies my selected xinitrc file to ~/.xinitrc??? * { I NEVER want to see ANY gui till I ask for it. And that goes triple for the login screen. } Thanks again! -- | ~^~ ~^~ | <?> <?> Joe (theWordy) Philbrook | ^ J(tWdy)P | \___/ <<[email protected]>> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
