Updates!

AndrewZorn · 04-03-2005, 12:12 AM

I have 610 updates available, but whenever I go in and try to do them all, it says that two of them confilct with the ATI package I installed. Fine by me, I can't use it anyway. Unfortunately, it just has an 'OK' button at the bottom, and pushing that exits. The packages it lists are NOT on the list of package updates, so I do not know how to just skip these! This really sucks. Help me, please.

Errr, what distro are you using and what method are you using to upgrade your system?

fedora core 3 64
I click the little red (!) in the top right and then click up2date select all then push next

Try updating using yum as root e.g. "yum update".

I did the 'yum update' thing worked i guess pretty nifty BUT that little red (!) is still blinking and even if i removed it, it comes back every restart!

It means that there are some updates that still haven't been installed. Possibly the packages that would conflict with your ATI driver have not been installed. You can disable it by clicking on the gnome-panel and removing the rhn applet.

it still says 610, thats the problem... but the yum update took like 2hrs

There definitley is a problem but I can't figure out what it is. If you use irc, maybe go to the #fedora channel at freenode and try get some help.
