[1] Yes. It was tested with Search and 'kde4' as search term, but with another option (below) it doesn't work. > What does one type into the Search field or what > entry using the pull down in the search field. > Is it possible to show ALL the updates available? It is possible to see all packages, not only updates. Use Filter: Package Groups and highlight 'zzz All'. As [1] doesn't work on 'zzz All' packages the same way as with Search, I used click on Avail. Ver. column and it sorted packages by version: 1) red - where installed package is newer than available 2) blue - where update is available 3) black - where available version and installed are the same 4) no checkmark - not installed This would be much easier to sort out looking on columns with version information. I hope that this will work. BTW, any particular reason not to use zypper? If you want to update all packages without looking what will be updated, than zypper is solution that offers right that. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
