What you did is not clear. If you read the thread carefully it's easy. Else see my website, I have the same thing less cluttered there.

i opened the page http://packages.opensuse-community.org/

since I need vlc player, I searched vlc der under opensuse.

I got many links out of which 1 was the media player. There was an Install icon to the right of this. I cicked on this link, and a save file dialog box appeared... I saved the file and its size was only 1 KB..

I have visited your website....here in my office, the download links are blocked....anyway thanks and nice website...created using joomla???

You would get direct rpm links through http://software.opensuse.org/search but vlc is not listed there, so you can directly go to http://packman.links2linux.de/
