i actually _tried_ to use the ximian installer and it wouldn't go. waste of time. i downloaded installed their rpms, excluding the devel ones. couldn't install them until i removed some packages from my full rh9 installation. but i didn't mind, they were stuff i didn't care about. next problem was it crashed right away. turns out if i have galeon running first, gconfd-1 is launched by galeon, and evolution 1.4 needs gconfd-2, else it crashes. but if i launch evo first, it launches gconfd-2, and galeon is happy with that. not the hardest upgrade ever, heck only a few hours. less for you now that you know. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
