Which version of SUSE Linux / openSUSE are you using ? How Firefox 2.0.0.2 was installed/updated ? Per system online update ? By first downloading an archive from a non-SUSE site ? You should become a bit more precise to get useful replies ! i found the opensuse download site for firefox 2.0.0.2. i got it installed and running. dwain -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

There is a functionality which informs about update available online. For details see another reply from my side within this thread ! -- Never give up ! Best regards / Gruß, Reinhard.

You do not need tpo download software updates manually. There is a functionality which informs about update available online. Actually, that's not true. That functionality only works if you use the firefox version right from the firefox folks, the ones from openSUSE have that functionality disabled. The intent is to publish new RPMs when new firefoxes become available rather than use the update mechanism built into firefox itself. Of course, the update mechanism built-in does work for themes and extensions. -- Carpe diem - Seize the day. Carp in denim - There's a fish in my pants!

The SUSE update notifier informs you about updates of the software and Firefox 2.0.0.2 is an official update (at least for openSUSE 10.2). So he was right.

As long as you configured an update repository ( should be a mirror of http://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.2/ ), you should get all updates automatically.
