I gota say XFree 3.2.2 was simple to download from ftp.suse.com and install with Yast. I gota say I was useing SuSE X servers before and Xfree86 incorperated them into 3.2.2 and they a hell of alot better.

I just installed S.u.S.E. 5.1 yesterday, noticed XFree 3.2.2 was out, so downloaded the rpms from the S.u.S.E. ftp server and tried to install them... Right, I'm sure I've missed something really obvious here, but how do you perform updates with Yast? There seems to be no way of selecting the directory you've downloaded updated rpms into (so Yast has no knowledge of them...)! I tried changing "installation media" to the download directory (in this case /root/home/tmp) but this didn't work either. In the end I tried installing XFree 3.2.2 using rpm (with -U option), but one of the components clashed with ps-1.12.2-5 and refused to install... Also how do you install netscape.rpm without conflicting with the ntscp (Netscape script) thing already installed?
