Hi Basil,
Hate to ask the obvious, but I believe you ended up configuring things as I do, so did you ensure smart-update is setuid after the upgrade? If the smart package is updated a fresh version of this binary is installed without setuid, which causes those symptoms. You need the line: /usr/bin/smart-update root.root 4755 in /etc/permissions.local, but whenever you see smart updated (should be done everytime you do an update of anything really) you need to run SuSEconfig as root. This will set the setuid flag on the file, and ksmarttray will do the right thing again.
Hehe, same problem here. Thanks Steve. Marius
