    I am using KDE.i have set my internet proxy throught K Menu>Psersonal Settings>Internet & Networking > Proxy. There i set proxy manually every thing is working fine(eg:- Kget & the internet browser ) expect when ever i tried to set my repositories using yast or smart or any other, i think It does not connect to internet and i have tried to import the key from any site it gives the error also my online updates is not working. Proxy is working fine.

    Smart configuration requires modification for a Proxy

    In the case of Smart Package Manager, if one is using a Proxy, then one has to modify part of Smart's configuration.

    You can get pointed in the right direction by using the Google Search Engine. By tying "Smart Package Manager proxy" I obtained a web page hit, which pointed me to this wiki.
    http://wiki.suselinuxsupport.de/wikk...ka=smartconfig

    Look under smart config, network options, and that should continue to point you in the right direction. I don't use a Proxy, so you will need work out the final details yourself.

    and What about online updates it's also not working. I have searched on internet but i did not find any solution and yast repositories did not set due to same reason.

    I have fixed my avi file problem its now running fine and other formats are working well. i have installed my xine lib. i have downloaded xine-lib-1.1.4.tar.bz2 & xine-ui-0.99.4.tar.gz from this web site http://xinehq.de/index.php/releases and installed them now video files are working fine.
