I'm still playing with this, and I have some more questions. I started again, with the idea of going "SuSE - only". It doesn't seem possible. I downloaded the SuSE - Gnome updates for 7.3 (cable modems are great!), but then ran into the question, how to install them? I don't want to just "rpm -UhV *.rpm" as not all of the packages are installed now - I don't want them all. But how do I resolve the dependencies? In fact, I've spent the day doing this by hand, focusing on Evolution and Gnome-pilot, and may almost be there. But is there some easy way I don't know about? I"ve been running "rpm -Uhv --test etc.rpm" and getting some dependencies filled from rpmfind, as the SuSE Gnome packages don't supply them (which seems pretty odd - what are they thinking of?). Also, not all of the packages seem available from SuSE Gnome - Gnome-pilot doesn't seem to be there. It wasn't in 7.3, and I don't see it in the updates. So, I'm wondering if I'm going about this right. Can you enlighten me about how to approach this? Regards, Bret
