You will have to add additional repositories. I found it on the "guru" repository - version 1.4.5 is there. I use SMART as a tool (similar to apt-get, if that still exists) but you can pick and choose what tool you want.

YaST is that and more. It is probabaly one of the stronger points of SUSE. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
