With the AMD 64 (don't know about Intel) you can either install the 32 or 64 bit packages from the DVD. NOTE: The DVD contains far more packages than the 5 CD's and should be used as the installation source. When you are in the initial install/bootup screen you will see a function key indicating 64bit (can't remember the key, maybe F4). Just press the function key and you can either select a 64 bit or 32 bit install. This also applies to your screen resolution. With Yast --> Software --> Software Management you should be able to select and install any of the 32 bit libraries available. I suggest you read the following article on how to configure YAST although it is for SuSE 9.3 the same applies to 10.0 http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/11504.html Details on External YaST Repositories can be found here http://www.opensuse.org/YaST_package_repository For local mirrors please look at http://mirror.pacific.net.au For KDE upgrade to 3.5 insert this into Yast Server : mirror.pacific.net.au Directory: linux/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_10.0/yast-source/ linux/suse/i386/supplementary/misc/update_for_10.0/yast-source/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A lot of information can be found on the following urls User contributed information - Index http://www.opensuse.org/User_Documentation wiki fully dedicated to SUSE http://www.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Main_Page SuSE Support knowledgebase Try the "History" section first. http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/index.html Hope that this information helps. -- Regards, Graham Smith -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
