SuSe 9.1 YOU FTP problems

Fox34 · 03-19-2007, 10:37 PM

When I try to do the online update for YAST it NEVER connects to a server. Ive used all the servers it comes with and found ones on my own. It just doesn't work. The only reason I want to is to get my video card drivers, which apparently is impossible on Linux SuSe. I run on a nVida 7600GS, Linux says its VESA frame buffer which is the default crap. If someone can help me with this video problem I would be very thankful. I just cant change my resolution or refresh rate. Which is terrible. I just need drivers which I just cant do alone.

Get 10.2, it supports my 7900gs so most likely your card as well.

Fox34 · 03-19-2007, 10:46 PM

Alright thanks, can I just download the ISO and burn it?

DanTheBanjoman · 03-19-2007, 11:15 PM

Yup, I got the DVD version, it's like 3GB. Has everything on it though. In fact I feel that it's a bit bloated

im confused. are you having problems logging onto an FTP or are you having graphics card problems???

Fox34 · 03-20-2007, 12:26 PM

Rhino, I am having problems connecting to an FTP to download the new patches. The main patch I want is for my video card.

ya get 10.2 way better if you have alot of cd's you can go to their site and instead of the dvd version getting like the 5 cd set same OS.

Fox34 · 03-20-2007, 01:42 PM

Nice, Yea 9.1 is amazing except for the video problems. When I first used it it did the same thing. Now I just got a lot of DL'in to do.

devilstar · 10-03-2007, 01:46 PM

I got 10.2 and the update URL is reported as invalid.

Going to do manually
