Thanks Kipling but I think i may do it the hard way and use the RedCarpet
Installer over the next few months! Nah, should only take a couple of days
but I just though there may be a zip/tar file out there that I can download
instead of all the individual rpm's as there's around 50 of them and i can
only get a few each time before i get disconnected and have to start all
over again but miss out the rpm's i've already got! bit fiddly, really. Oh,
i've also found a great download manager integrated into Opera 5.2. It's not
quite as good as GETRIGHT but not far off..........

1. Don't know about Gnome on RPM, but I recall the Ximian script was
interactive.  No use if you can't finish the dl, though.

2. I use GTM (GTransfer Manager) for resumable dl's.

Good Luck!
