When doing this are you logged in as root (type su then the root password) and is file://... pointing to the right directory? If both these are OK this is baffling - urpmi.addmedia should work :/ BTW I should've read the original email more carefully - if you're installing KDE 3.0.1 on Mandrake 8.0 and/or 8.1 you need to download the files from ftp://download.uk.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/3.0.1/Mandrake/8.0 ftp://download.uk.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/3.0.1/Mandrake/8.1 Alastair - -- Alastair Scott (London, United Kingdom) http://www.unmetered.org.uk/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE9He5aCv59vFiSU4YRAs5rAKClndFIO9H76Hgwb1vr6bJeelWAOACfT2jW Giew5tMVyk8eEmMBGj2xbus= =U8O3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
