Description Tobias Burnus 2005-08-26 18:32:18 UTC

Ok, I suspended my laptop (eth0 up), moved to another place and wanted to
configure WLAN.
I started
  yast2 lan

and what does it do?

  Package information being read ...
  Refreshing SUSE LINUX Version 10.0
  (http://ftp.gwdg.de//pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS-beta2/inst-source/)
(Wait quite a while until it times out and click SKIP)
  Refreshing SUSE LINUX Version 10.0
(http://ftp.gwdg.de//pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS-beta2/inst-source-java/)
(Wait quite a while until it times out and click SKIP)

EXPECTED: Especially if I want to configure the network, one should be able to
skip quickly the package refresh. If one has a long list of YAM/YAST sources it
otherwise is quite enervating!

I'll check what interface I use. It may be a general package manager issue.

Comment 2 Martin Vidner 2005-09-05 12:59:39 UTC

I use Package::InstallKernel.

This is not priority of YaST. For fast WLAN network switch is here NetworkManager
