Okay, I admit it. I'm sometimes a thick headed stubborn old cute. I finally decided to give up on my once "favorite" rpm site and tried another that I'd never tried before. It actually responded and now I can join the elightened masses and install again via urpmi. It IS a hell of an idea and if they polish it a little more, it could be king of the hill with a little marketing. I mean I know it is basically a script file but pure simple genius. Thanks for the suggestions, now that I'm back out of dependency hell and able to install a few things, I'm off. Just installed audacity and it is all kind of pissed off.

Don't research it though, unless you really want to. :) On Tuesday 09 September 2003 05:56 am, Charlie M. wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > September 9, 2003 06:42 am, lorne wrote: > > On Monday 08 September 2003 08:03 pm, Rolf Pedersen wrote: > > > lorne wrote: > > > > I know that previous version of Mandrake did have an editor. > > > > Darned if I can find one now.
