Type the command "rpm -q up2date-gnome" to see if you have it installed. If you do, then you probably need to apply the PAM errata. If you don't, you don't need to switch to the GNOME desktop to run up2date. You can run the graphical interface to up2date from KDE as long as you have the up2date-gnome package installed, which includes the graphical interface. > I presume I can download or pickup the appropriate files for the > 'up2date-gnome' package? > Yes. The package is in the main Red Hat Linux distribution.
