Description Axel Braun 2007-08-22 17:22:55 UTC 
As media sources the DVD is entered, as well as the 'standard repositories' on opensuse.org.

When I'm offline and want to install some packages, the update on the online-repositories fails of course. The error message is:
There was an error in the repository initialization
Valid metadata not found at specified URL(s)

As a consequence, YaST shows only installed packages. It is not even possible to install packages from the inserted DVD! I feel that is a major problem that should be fixed.
