hi Guys need some opensuse help, please.
I am trying add a local repositories for opensuse but just can't get it to accept the address i put in. Can any one help me please with a proper working link please. I normally use Mandriva and it automatically gives you a list of SA links to add but I cant get it to work in opensuse. Pretty Please :o
