Thanks all, I am back in bi-ness with urpmi.  I deleted all my sources and 
re-set and updated the sources.  I then managed to get all the needed rpms 
downloaded and installed...though I find that the texstar rpms actually make 
my system SLOWER rather than faster (nor same speed).  There once was a time 
when texstar rpms were "super" optimized so that you might expect slightly 
better performance from them vs standard rpms, but no more, it seems.  Or, at 
least on my system - an ageing IBM stinkpad celery 366.  It takes LONGER for 
KDE to startup than with the original Mandrake updated KDE 3.1 rpms.  It 
takes LONGER for certain apps to start (kmail, konqueror, etc).  If it wasn't 
such a miserable pain, I would take them out and go back to the official 
Mandrake rpms but as 9.2 is so close to release, I will likely wait for it 
(and hope that KDE isn't slower still).
