   Notice that TW is a rolling distro, it gets updates almost continuously.   
   If you are installing the next month again from DVD, you are doing it wrong.   
      
   Instead, you should be running "zypper dup --no-allow-vendor-change" in   
   a terminal periodically, and read the factory mail list for problems. If   
   you use TW you must expect problems every week, here or there.
