What you can do is (I am looking at 10.3, so naming can be a bit

enable the update and set an hour you desire.

Then _most importantly_ you enable 'skip interactive patches'. Then not
only kernels, but other patches that need something to be done, will get
skipped.

Put this in cron:

zypper up -t patch --skip-interactive

And what do you think is done when you do it via YaST? ;-)

houghi

You and I (and many others) are YaST lovers and we know it does that
(and a lot more) :)

But there are also people who come from other distributions and/or are
command line oriented. Some just want to edit configuration files with
an editor instead of using YaST.

This was for them.
