This is for installed files and yes works fine but I am looking for something
that will tell me an application is in an rpm which I do NOT have installed so I know what rpm to install to get the app running.
For something not installed, but available on the DVD/CDs, Yast is your best bet. Pin would also do what you ask but is not GUI. Properly configured, Synaptic through apt is another possibility to do what you want. I haven't used it, but Red Carpet is another. These last 2 can access on line repositories that expand your possibilities beyond the DID/Cs. -- Joe Morris New Tribes Mission Email Address: Joe_Morris@ntm.org Registered Linux user 231871
