You have two options IMO
amplatfus.
1. Access the /var/usm/salix file as root and change the mirror it is set for to a different one.
2.Run the sesm.sh script described here:
[INFO & SCRIPT] Slackware Mirror Settings for USM
Either option should work for you.

The following items were found.

#? 1
Nothing was found in Slackware but i found this in slackbuilds.
NAME : sopcast-player
CATEG: network
DESC : sopcast vlc
VERS : 0.7.2
After activating devel.xzm I managed to create sopcast-player-0.7.2-x86_64-1_SBo.tgz file.
Code: Select all
Slackware package /tmp/sopcast-player-0.7.2-x86_64-1_SBo.tgz created.
I tried to activated, but after open VLC with network stream sop://51.15.195.206:3912/151380 for instance it not worked. Could you please advice with what I should try?
Many thanks,
