And a lot your not saying here that you did (righteously) say then.... Ice in 9.1 is IMHO hosed. I moved back to the 9.0 rpms and it all began to work right. Then put ICE into the skiplist for urpmi. I had my own bugs but they also got ignored.... *sigh* BUT the 9.0 rpms work just fine on 9.1 if anyone is interested. James
