   Sometimes it is not download.opensuse.org which doesn't resolve, but the   
   mirror that you get redirected to. It is not easy to find out.   
      
   Another typical problem would be trying to use https instead of http.   
      
      
   You will have to diagnose. Start with:   
      
   host -v download.opensuse.org   
      
   in the problem computer.
