Ok.. I did find not and answer but a clue to my problem. I recently did upgrade to the latest version of firefox and neither galeon, epiphany or mozilla are installed on my system. Yelp requires mozilla. > > I have gone through the extensive checking ie clearing all rpm/urpmi > related processes, removing rpm databases (__db*) and rebuilding the > them.

I have cleared out all urpmx related processes removed rpm database files and rebuild them.

I looked in GConf editor and found some entries for yelp, but I didn't make any changes. Need some expert advise here. If I can't use Yelp as a help browser, can I user another ie firefox, mozilla? Is their a newer version of Yelp out there? Is my rpm database still not right? @#$%$%$$$! yours, Terry > ____________________________________________________ Terry Golightly ... tdotgolightlyatverizondotnet ...
