oS 11.2 KDE 4.4 rel 224...when to stop upgrades/repos?

http://forums.opensuse.org – I currently have the KDE_KDE4_Factory_Desktop and KDE_KDE4_Community repos enabled as I wanted to go to KDE 4.4. I realize that at some point I'm going to go the KDE 4.4.1 Beta....it's working pretty good now, to stop the KDE upgrades, can I just 'unenable' both KDE repos? I don't want any breakage as I work from this machine. Here are my enabled repos: KDE_KDE4_Community KDE_KDE4_Factory_Desktop Main Repository (NON-OSS) Main Repository (OSS) Main Repository (Sources) Main Update Repository Packman Repository google-chrome Any suggestions for repos or when to turn them off? I'm still trying to learn the oSuse way of doing things. thanks (Distributions)

Hi everyone! I'm new to SVN and I'm trying to create a repository and give access through a web browser.

I've got a fresh install of Precise Pangolin. I was connected to the Internet during the installation but did not choose to download updates while installing. The computer is now offline and will stay that way.

Hello,

Looking for source code packages I have configured the "Main repository (Sources)" into the yast list of repositories.

However when I select the repository view in th esoftware manager it shows this repository as empty. Other repositories work.

I have a Compaq desktop which came with a Motorola internal data-fax modem so I ordered abd received Ubuntu 12.10 from Osdisc and the 15 disk repository set. No probs installing op sys or repos But, software center doesn't seem to find repos when I try to update or install software. Have not tried to install wvdial and wvstreams 'cause I don't know where to put the libraries.

Hi,

I just upgraded from openSUSE 11.2 to 11.3. However it appears to me that Packman Repos still belongs in 11.2 because I cannot update it to 11.3 version. Is there any harm in running multimedia applications with Packman repo enabled under 11.3?

Thanks for your reply.
