In the configure media window, I find that checking "enabled" does not
remain checked in plf-free, plf-non-free, and updates. I can understand
this being so in the case of plf-non-free, but the intractability of
"plf-free" and "updates" baffles a mind that seeks simplicity.
"Main" and "Contrib" hold crosses in both "enabled" and "updates", for
reasons equally inscrutable.
Worst of all is that I did something way too clever a couple of weeks ago
(before I understood that not all the software on the DVD gets installed
during the installation of 2006)
and removed the DVD as a source for urpmi.
No way is apparent to reverse this.
I'm itching to delete Amarok and KsCD because of their over-eager
tendency to hijack my intentions ;
and because they somehow leave other applications like Limewire and Grip
voiceless until reboot.
But if I have to reinstall them after discovering that the alternatives
are equally frustrating
there will be trouble with the enforcer of the download budget.
