But let me say again GNOME was disabled presumably by removing gnome-sessions by the Add/Remove program and no confirmation was asked for. I would never agree with such a action. By the way that part of the interface is somewhat confusing to me but I am sure I never confirmed a removal of GNOME. So there must be a bug somewhere in the program. Now I must apologize to you for disagreeing when you indicated there was a bug in the yum-updatesd program I figure you mean that it does not do automatic updates. I have an aversion to automatic updates. My statement it works when you send the notification to dbus and you get a balloon that says that updates are available and you can choose which to update. Am I correct in this analysis? I find FC6 a little over-engineered. The yum-updatesd is a little too clever for its own good. The old way with a simple crontab entry was more direct and did the job. Just let us say I am extremely frustrated by my current experiences like GNOME disappearing and I may be over reacting. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
