Re: Repository 'openSUSE-10.3-Updates' is invalid

I did not say it is fast. I say _I_ do not see any problems with the

Sure, but then how do you get notified of updates. Some repos are
turned off on my system, such as the Nvidia one. Can't turn them all
off though and still run a reasonably patched system. Or am I missing
something?

I don't know whether it's a problem or not. But it is an annoyance and
I know it could be better. This 'good enough for the girls we go with'
attitude puts us not far from the Microsoft camp IMHO. Open source is
wide open for innovation but too often we settle for much less...
