Description Axel Braun 2007-09-11 20:18:10 UTC 
Not sure if this is a translation or a technical problem.
First I check with zypper:

a30:/home/axel # zypper refresh

No updates found.

Then I trigger opensuse updater in the kicker. Result: Unable to check whether updates are available.
Is this now a bug or should it read: No updates available?

Comment 2 Axel Braun 2007-09-11 20:39:00 UTC 
Update: Looks like I have to change the title of the bug to: Online update configuration does not add update source.
I didnt add this during installation, but afterwards. http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/ was not added.
After doing so manually, it works.
Comment 3 Thomas Göttlicher 2007-09-20 13:14:14 UTC 
opensuseupdater-kde shows "Unable to check whether updates are available" if no update repo is defined.

You are right, online update configuration should add an update repo.

How did you add it?

> http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/ was not added.

So was it added or not?


As none of my tests failed and this report was for beta3, I will close it now.
Please reopen if you still have problems with the final release.
