I must apologize to Them. I found when I sent the posting above that there was an Update System window underneath telling me what was going on. So my complaint should really be about the new policy of opening windows in random desktops which seems to have been introduced with Fedora-9 KDE. (Eg when I penned a KNode article in Fedora-8 it opened in the same KNode window where I was before. Under Fedora-9 it opens in what appears to be a random choice among my 8 desktops.) -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
