Updating Your System with openSUSE Updater
An Internet connection is all you need to keep your openSUSE Linux system current. This
section tells you about using the openSUSE update system to maintain your system in tiptop
shape. Every package posted to a YaST server has been tested by SUSE staff to ensure
that it works correctly with your system.
Running the openSUSE Update System
For the most control over the update process, run Online Update manually. You can
choose which server to access and which applications to update. You can also get more
information on the patch applied to the application. It takes a little time, but it is not
especially complex.
For a long time, SUSE maintained just a few online update servers, in Germany and in a
few other European locations.
