Ok, since I've forked out a bit of cash for 9.1 personal I
figured I'd try to get it to work. So far, it still boots
sporadically and the errors are always different. I feel
lucky if I actually get KDE up and running.

Anyhow, my question is about installing RPM's off the suse
ftp site via Yast. I managed to download and install a
couple of packages this way but now it seems to have
stopped working. I get the "checking package" screen for a
split second and then nothing. Any ideas?
