The driver rpm depends on all the specific driver RPMs. The 0 byte figure is because the driver RPM contains no files. But it means your kickstart (and the default install groups) can have xorg-x11-drv and doesn't need to be updated everytime they add a new driver (which'd be pretty annoying). jh _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
