Hi; Just checking to see if others feel the same. I emphasize this is not a blocker to use. Could yum packages be set up to leave a message in the notification area or on the desk top when something has been downloaded and/or upgraded that requires a re-boot or a re-login. I recently received a new kernel and a new Evolution library upgrade. Both required a re-boot. I have gotten into the habit of re-booting automatically with an new kernel -- but someone new to Linux might not be used to that. More importantly to me, is being able to depend on the fact that if no re-boot is signalled, then no re-boot for some new or upgraded program is required. It just eliminates some FUD when trouble shooting. As a side bar note: I have just finished doing some work in WindowsXP after an absence of two or three weeks of booting into my WindowsXP drive. It took me over two hours (without any special problems) to get my M$ and Symantecs updated. I must have re-booted 8-10 times to get everything operating. So I really appreciate Linux's no re-boot features. If I know that on the few occasions when a re-boot needs to be done I will definitely be warned, I can cease to think about it. -- Regards Bill Fedora 10, Gnome 2.24.3 Evo.2.24.5, Emacs 22.3.1 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
