Just another urban myth. The packages are compiled for pentium, compiling them for pentium 4 (which is the most different x86 plattform available, compared to pentium) just gives you a mere boost of less than 1%, as long as you don't add some optimized assembly code. > > Add gnomemeeting.org as an install server to YaST, install it, and I am > > sure, you will be happy. > > How do I do this?

After that, you can just refresh the package in the software installation dialog.
