When I boot my machine the OpenSUSE updater has a window that says
downloading
Updating

This window is not movable and obscures other ICONS.

When it finishes the Blue icon has a big question mark
that says: "Unable to check whether upgrades are available".
Is this expected behavior for the beta?

Also, if I click on: "Online Update" in YaST I get back:
"No Active Update Source is available".
Perhaps this is because it is beta as well as I think the
two are related..

By the way, on my Pentium III 1-GHZ machine by turning off
Kerry / Beagle he software updater became a lot more responsive.
Prior to that I was blaming the updater for being way to slow.
