"Failed to Reset Client" error OpenSuSe 11


I installed OpenSuSe11 on both my laptop and desktop computer. Whenever I move the mouse to get out of the screensaver I get a "Failed to Reset Client" error message.

I think this has something to do with downloading updates. I went into the Yast Control Center and and redid the Online Update Configuration and it configured one repository...
http://download.opensuse.org/update/...=openSUSE-11.0

After that I did the Online Update in Yast and theres nothing there to download. I also tried updating the system by typing "zypper update" in a terminal and it says Nothing to do.

I shutdown SuSeFirewall and redid everything and that didn't solve it. I installed OpenSuSe 11 using the Livecd on both my laptop and desktop. My router is a Netgear router thats about 5 years old.

If anyone has any idea whats going on I'd appreciate it.

I receive this message periodically during my GNOME session within a pop-up window. I don't recall this happening in the manner you described, and I'm not certain what is causing this to happen. Whenever I initially log into GNOME, the system is able to check for any available updates, so I don't think it is a network-related issue.

I think I found it reported on bugzilla categorized as...
Bug 396170 - PackageKit: Failed to reset get-updates

I'm not sure if I can post links here but it says the the fix will be submitted in the update-test repo and is dated 07-16-08.

So I guess I'll have to add the update-test repo to my configuration because all I have is one there.

I made a mistake in saying that my repositories are wrong in fact they are all right.

One thing concerning the bugzilla note "Bug 396170 - PackageKit: Failed to reset get-updates" If I can't connect to it then how can I get the update that fixes the problem?

I'm thinking that I can go to the update website "http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.0/" and download the rpm updates manualy and install them on the system.

I think the updates are the one titled "libqt4" If not I can just download the whole shlew and install them all. I don't know what anyones opinion is on this.
