Greetings:

I have just recently installed Suse 10.1. I am unable to get the
"Software Updater" application located on the taskbar to work although
the YAST2 "Online Update" appeared to install many updates when I tried
it. When triggered by ~right click/refresh~ the "Software Updater"
generates the following error:
...........
Refresh Failed: Failed to parse XML metadata: Can't add repository at
http://ftp-linux.cc.gatech.edu/pub/suse/suse/update/10.1: Cannot create
the installation source
..........

Thanks in advance for any help!

This is NOT a valid repo for 10.1 !! If you look in the directory you will
see there is no xml file containing the required meta data, which is what
the warning says. Go to the OpenSuSE web site and look under 'additional
yast repositories' to find valid repo's....
