Alright, as you know I have Redhat 6.0 now. I downloaded Mozilla tonight and tried to install it using this command

rpm -i mozilla*

well it gave me an error about being the wrong rpm version

something like that, you have any idea? I am at work now so I can't give you the exact error, if nobody knows by the time I get home, when I do get home I'll post the exact error. I don't know where to get a tarball of a new RPM proggy, but I guess I'll start looking! :P

I had to get up. I shouldn't have answered the phone. :-( I was "volunteered" to take my niece to school this morning.

That sucks!

Well I am still having problems with my rpm package.
The Upgrade I downloaded of course was to new for my current
RPM install to install soooo I am looking for an older version
of the RPM package. Since everyone and their mother is
downloading 7.2 right now, it is taking me awhile!

Hmmm, thats true you will probably have to upgrade rpm in steps starting from that old a distribution. Yeah I bet the mirror sites are getting hammered pretty hard. It will take a week at least for it too slow down even a little.

Since RPMFind.net is finally up again, I was able to get what I
need from there. Phew! I now have my RPM package updated
next my X server so I can stop looking at this 640x480 screen
at 8bpp...augh
