dude67 Posted September 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 How did you switch to wget? I have the same problem... cannot download a list from PLF, though I was able to install kde3 packages from other media just fine. From MCC -> Configure media sources -> Options -> Global options -> Download program to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
