I hope that I am posting to the appropriate list for this, I am sort of
new with SuSE.  
 
Ver 8.1
Minimal install (not an upgrade) on 2 machine. Both have the same
problem.
 
Issue: Cannot perform an online update of my system.  I receive an error
of not being able to initialize the session. 
 
I can however establish a manual ftp connection, and I do have a working
network connection via DHCP across a broadband ISP. 
I have tried the wget update from SuSE using the yast2rpmmanagager
update, no success.  I am lost as to what to do from here on out.  I do
know that I do not have a wgetrc file in my /etc dir.  I am assuming
that the minimal install does not include support for online update.  I
can not perform another install because of the GUI install.  My
machine(s) crashes EVERY time without the updates. one is a Toshiba
laptop satellite 2545cds and a desktop Asus a7v AMD 1 GHz, promise
controller.  I have resolved the a7v promise issues, but the GUI crashes
a lot so I went back to a minimal install.  I hope this can help you
help me.  I am frustrated, I have posted a support request to SuSE an
have yet to hear back, and if I call their support it is long distance
and there is no holding QUE so it is a shot in the dark to speak with
anyone.  
 
 
Thanks, Aaron
