I thought that's why the quick push to 10.2 from 10.1 because zmd would fix 
all the update issues...

this makes no sense to me:
----------------------
openSUSE is focusing on native software management by using YaST and
libzypp, the package management library.
------------------
so what does this mean,  I have no clue what libzypp is..
so, do I try to get zmd working? do I switch to rug and try to configure it? 
fo I just continue using smart...

---------------------------------------------------------------
ZENworks Linux Management is Novell's solution for enterprise-class
resource management for desktops and servers. ZENworks components are
fully available and supported for SUSE Linux Enterprise based products
and not longer part of the openSUSE distribution.
---------------------------------------------------
not sure what this means to me...
