If you haven't already, try su'ing to root in the terminal and then starting mcc or rpmdrake from there. This will skip asking for the root password, which is one possible source of trouble. If it still doesn't work, try actually loging in as root and running mcc or rpmdrake from an entirely root environment. One of the 8.2 betas had a brief mcc bug where environment variables were not properly set outside of kde. Maybe this is a similar problem? (of course, normally you should almost never log in as root, but since we are bug-hunting here, it might be okay. just be sure to log out and log back in as your regular user before playing games or surfing the net. :-) -- Chris Spackman gpg: 9B6B 860E 7C06 787F 366F 5D3E 7152 DCB2 FC51 51B9
