Each repository will have a subdirectory for the 64 bit packages. Use YaST2 and add a repository if you haven't already. Also look in the "Community Repositories" module. There you can add the packman & nvidia or ati repositories.

Did you configure the updater.
YaST2 -> Software -> Online Update Configuration

stasik,

Did you also enable the repositories after you added them? You may wish to refresh them, too. I have been running the 64-bit version of 10.3 since October with no problems with the repositories - unless the repositories were down. That is an entirely different issue. Good luck.
