Any > pointers? Sounds like the rpm --setugids didn't work? Did you have any /usr/local applications installed? You can use rpm --verify along with it's options to find config files that have been modified from their defaults and copy those over. The next install should set all the /etc/X11 stuff for you, no need to copy it. You only really need the rpmforge repo def in /etc/yum.repos.d unless you have a lot of excludes defined in yum.conf. ______________________________________________________________________ This e-mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.
