Yast

Just installed Suse 10 and been a long time Redhat/Fedora user. Yast is driving me nuts because I thought it was like apt and went out on the internet to obtain packages. Am I wrong?

It can get RPMs from various sources but you need to add those sources first. There's a good article over at SuSE Wiki which should cover this.

Hi,
if you want to use apt, simply go to the following link and follow the instructions. You can then install synaptic with apt and that is all.

Hope it will help.
