You already have KDE installed? The mesage tells you that there are currently no newer (than those already installed) RPMs available for download from the Red Hat up2date server. The up2date server only contains files that Red Hat has released as updates to the distro, not necessarily the most recent available from the authors or maintainers. To install the rpms you already downloaded, you should be able to do: rpm -Fvh (or -Uvh) *.rpm from within the directory containing the downloaded files. As long as all required files are in that directory, rpm will work out the dependencies and install order. - -D - -- pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/pgpkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.2 in 8M of RAM: http://www.freesoftware.fsf.org/rule/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8tQH9eMAUbzJhSVcRAhEQAJ94gbWK5wEvY5RmeNX/brOEmvrckQCfY43F wP+RLrdQTmkw8ME+tvEJvDQ= =4X4g -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
