I've used yum to upgrade Mandrake 9.1 to Mandrake 9.2 (a process that included upgradign Gnome 2.2 to Gnome 2.4). The final step "yum upgrade" downloaded 500 or so packages totalling 550MB (or so). It took a while, but worked fine. The command probably is "yum install gnome2" or something very similar. Enjoy! David
