How did you know that some files had been replaced?
Did SuSE YOU or YAST email them to root or another email id, was it a pop-up, was it in a log?
Did you make the changes manually or did you use YAST or something else?
Thank you. ==================
Hi DJ, Well, for one thing, it stands to reason that if you are moving from gcc2.95 to gcc3.2 compiled programs that many things will be replaced in order for everything to work correctly. That was my first clue, the second was using YaST2 as it updated things, as it pretty much tells you what will be replaced as it goes. The third thing was that some things didn't work as they did before, usually alerting one to the fact that a config file or link had been altered. All in all a little common sense and a fair amount of SuSE letting you know as you go along. Patrick -- --- KMail v1.4.3 --- SuSE Linux Pro v8.1 --- Registered Linux User #225206
