Hello, what is the version of these packages in the repositories? yum list xorg-x11-tools xorg-x11-devel xorg-x11-libs xorg-x11-xfs xorg-x11 And which version do you have installed? rpm -q xorg-x11-tools xorg-x11-devel xorg-x11-libs xorg-x11-xfs xorg-x11 Also you can try to install only from basic repos: yum install xorg-x11-tools --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=rhel4-Base --enablerepo=rhel4-updates (the repositories can have different names, I'm just guessing) Hope this helps, Jan -- Jan Hutar Quality Assurance Engineer jhutar@xxxxxxxxxx Red Hat, Inc.
