Hello all! I'm a new user of SuSE Linux 10.1. I just installed it the other day and, so far, I am very happy with it. I do have one question. Some of the software that has been installed are several versions old. I'm wondering how I go about installing newer versions? For example, currently I am running KDE 3.5.1. How can I get the packages for KDE 3.5.4? Are they available? If so, what source should I include for the software updater? Currently, I have http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/suse/update/10.1 as a source. But this seems to only have patches (unless I'm missing something). I'd really like to get more up to date versions of many programs. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Rick

Rick, My advice, get the updates of smart first. You could use the smart which came with 10.1 for that. After having updated smart get all you want via smart.
