I never had an issue using YaST on any version. So what is the reason
you specificaly talk about 10.3?

They have come a long way. Zypper is also great to use if just
installing and removing stuff, although I use OCICLI more often for
installation.

Then you are going to *really* love 11.0! Orders of magnitude
faster which is where previous versions were lacking, IMNSHO!

Question which version of opensuse are you using?
Question what version of smart are you using?
I use smart package manager version 0.51-56 with opensuse 10.3 32 bit with
no problems. On my pc it works better than YaST2.

All be it i use the version of smart that was meant for opensuse 10.2.

I can send you this version plus extras, as you can not get this version any
more.
