I don't have access via the GUI, so I am running yast2 from the command line to do updates to a newly installed 9.2 system. It tells me to reboot for the new kernel to take affect, but again downloads it after rebooting. I do a 'uname -a' before running update again and see that I have linux 2.6.8-24.10-smp, but again it wants to download.
I know in KDE it will ask to 'Install the Patch'? Is there something I need to do at the command line for it to stop updating the kernel?
Thanks, -- Robert, Don't know if this will help or not, but it's worth a try. Sounds as if

Usually with the GUI YOU, after installing, it runs /sbin/SuSEconfig. You can try that after it attempts another update. That should update the YOU database to show those files last installed. If that still doesn't seem to take care of your problem, then run the command: rpm --rebuilddb That will rebuild the rpm database and may just set things right for you. As I said, just theories, but simple fixes if one works. regards, Lee -- --- KMail v1.7.2 --- SuSE Linux Pro v9.2 --- Registered Linux User #225206 "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it." ...Mark Twain
