I am getting pretty much the same results as before. I am still trying to upgrade xmms - first i did rpm -iv xmms-1.2.6-1.i386.rpm but realised that i might need to do an upgrade and then did the following: # rpm -Uv xmms-1.2.6-1.i386.rpm error: failed dependencies: xmms = 1.2.5-4mdk is needed by xmms-esd-1.2.5-4mdk xmms = 1.2.5-4mdk is needed by xmms-gnome-1.2.5-4mdk xmms = 1.2.5-4mdk is needed by xmms-mikmod-1.2.5-4mdk 426 root@psybernet:/home/walter/wldownloads/xmms (12:25:22) # This leaves me confused as to what it is telling me and what to do now. It seems the old xmms is needed by some of the files that support it??? Walter
