Hi Lucas,

It should work.

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
