11.3 .ymp files opened as text files

[Gilbert]

Hi

What am I missing? When I try to download one-click install .ymp files,
Firefox & Konqueror open them as xml text files rather tha treating them
as install files.

Run Configure Desktop/Personal Settings

open File Associations
type ymp in search bar
expand +text & select x-suse-ymp
look on the right, at the Application Preference Order list
Yast Meta Package handler should be the first entry.
if not, add it, or move it up

That's what the file association is set to. I'm trying to access
http://ftp.twaren.net/Linux/OpenSuSE/repositories/KDE:/Distro:/Factory/openSUSE_11.3/KDE4-
BASIS.ymp - but still opening as text

Oh I see. That's the web servers fault. Looks like all the mirrors are
serving it up as text. Just save that page as a .ymp file and then open it
locally..

OR get it from the source:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Distro:/Factory/openSUSE_11.3/
