Ok, I have resolved my problem. I don't have any 3rd party software installed like you do Raymond but when I did a SPiden -vv it gave me a list of the packages it didn't like. Sure enough, when I look at the SP1 installation CDs, the level for these packages is a bit newer than what I have. Why the SP1 upgrade did not resolve these and why they don't show up when I do an Online Update in Yast is beyond me.
I used Yast and did 'Software Management' to install the later version of the pacakges and now SPident reports correct results. Thanks for those how helped. Aria.
