[opensuse] suse 10.2 updates

I installed suse 10.2 with gnome, openoffice & evolution - I thought it
would be more stable [I come from kde].
The system is 32 amd, ide, usb [dvd, mouse] & dial-up

I downloaded all of the available updates [through most of April] for
10.2 and started applying them to the installed system using yast2.

- About a third of the way through the updates, yast2 would no longer do
an rpm update, so I resorted to: rpm -Fv [freshen]; which works fine but
has anyone had this `problem' where yast no longer will work to update
using an rpm patch file?

- On reboot I found myself with no sound and no usb [no mouse. no dvd,
etc] - has anybody had this problem?

I think I know the culprit - it is an update to yast2 =
yast2-sound-2.15-1.1.i586 patch.rpm.

Can somebody confirm or ?

thanks,
cheers,

Serge
