I can't afford the Pro release - I just downloaded the Personal CD and installed that. Is there a site I can add to YAST that has the missing RPMs ?

Andrew

In this respect, Pro or Personal is irrelevant. YAST is the same under both, since it's an essential component of SuSE. The only difference is that your CD (which is likely your only listed installation source) doesn't have development packages, so you have to configure YAST to get the packages from the Internet-- but they're freely available on the SuSE mirrors.


Head on over to the SuSE site and find a mirror reasonably close to you, such as ftp://ftp.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.suse.com/pub/ (which is listed on the SuSE mirror page at http://www.novell.com/products/linuxprofessional/downloads/ftp/int_mirrors.html as a mirror for the UK), and add the /suse/i386/current directory to YAST's installation sources.

If you aren't sure how to add a repository to YAST's available installation sources, you can find instructions in this thread on LinuxQuestions.org:

Hope this helps.
