apparently fedora doesn't update the apps on a system upgrade. You have to run a yum update to update the apps. (I may be wrong here - maybe there is something like the debian apt-get dist-upgrade which does both, but I was on a slow internet link and chose to use a DVD to do the upgrade.) > > BTW, what happened to Mandriva? mandriva is rocking and rolling - my family uses it and most of my clients use it. Unfortunately the C++ libraries are b0rked, so I can't use it on my laptop. (The chicken is available if you want it to upgrade any of your ubuntu systems) -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate NRC-FOSS http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
