Yast will pick up the newest build from the sources you have specified. I don't believe Guru does the Amarok or xmms files, though I haven't used that repository either. You can go into your Sources part of Yast2 and disable those you don't want Yast to look for the files, thus leaving only Packman to choose from. I used KYum for doing updates, that seemed better and easier than any of the SuSE standard ones. It was also easier to disable certain mirrors. You can also just go to a Packman mirror and download the files needed, then install them manually. There's some options for you. Many users here are using Smart to do their updating, again much more reliable program to use. regards, Lee -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
