Charlie, You don't need to rely on those old messages any longer. Up-to-date and working urpmi sources can now be easily found by using the page at: http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon In step 1, you select the MDK release level for which you want sources. It has everything from Cooker all the way back to the 7.2 release. I realize, of course, that you were offering those URLs for Patricia's benefit, and are unlikely to be still running 8.2 yourself; still, in case anyone is not aware of the Easy Urpmi page, it's always worth mentioning. As for support: according to Mandrake's current End-Of-Life policy, the "desktop" support for 8.2 ceased at the end of March. The "base" packages will continue to receive updates through the end of this month. The EOL policy page is here: http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/productlifetime.php -- Bill Mullen [EMAIL PROTECTED] MA, USA RLU #270075 MDK 8.1 & 9.0 "An opinion is like a branding iron.
