Sorry for the book below! urpmi kernel-source Doc; If you have an update_source configured for the Software Manager (urpmi) to use, the kernel-source for the update kernel (2.4.22-18mdk) should have propagated to all the update mirrors by now. If not you can get it directly and rpm -Uvh it, but when you do update the kernel as well. It fixes some "glitches" according to the advisory I got this afternoon. The following commands run as super user from a terminal may help: urpmi.addmedia main ftp://ftp.rediris.es/pub/linux/distributions/mandrake/9.2/i586/Mandrake/RPMS with ../base/hdlist.cz urpmi.addmedia contrib ftp://ftp.rediris.es/pub/linux/distributions/mandrake/9.2/contrib/i586 with ../../i586/Mandrake/base/hdlist2.cz urpmi.addmedia plf ftp://ftp.club-internet.fr/pub/linux/plf/mandrake/9.2 with hdlist.cz urpmi.addmedia update_source ftp://ftp.uninett.no/pub/unix/Linux/Mandrake/Mandrake/updates/9.2/RPMS with ../base/hdlist.cz will get you everything except the club, which it seems you already have. Check the sources you already have first though. You may have to run: urpmi.removemedia -a first then start from scratch. If you do I'd suggest adding the club last but it may not matter. When I tried to update my son's machine this morning the updates weren't on the mirrors yet, but I just spoke to my daughter and had her run: urpmi.update -a -f && urpmi --wget --auto-select -v on that machine. She says the total was shown as 279 MB. I hope everbody has a fast connection.
