Hmm. # rpm -q centos-release centos-release-5-1.0.el5.centos.1 and: # rpm -qa --last | head mplayerplug-in-3.50-1.el5.rf Tue 04 Dec 2007 06:54:37 AM EST freenx-0.7.1.svn416-3.el5.centos Sun 02 Dec 2007 06:49:42 PM EST xorg-x11-drv-mga-1.4.2-6.el5 Sun 02 Dec 2007 06:49:41 PM EST xorg-x11-drv-nv-2.1.2-1.el5 Sun 02 Dec 2007 06:49:40 PM EST firstboot-1.4.27.3-1.el5.centos Sun 02 Dec 2007 06:49:38 PM EST xorg-x11-drv-i810-1.6.5-9.6.el5 Sun 02 Dec 2007 06:49:36 PM EST xorg-x11-drv-vesa-1.3.0-8.1.el5 Sun 02 Dec 2007 06:49:35 PM EST rhpxl-0.41.1-1.el5 Sun 02 Dec 2007 06:49:34 PM EST xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.1.1-48.26.el5 Sun 02 Dec 2007 06:49:31 PM EST xorg-x11-drv-keyboard-1.1.0-3 Sun 02 Dec 2007 06:49:29 PM EST so, perhaps I did get the update, since the first of those 2 cmds shows 5.1. But I don't remember getting a huge bolus of updates, which is what I would have expected to constitute a 5.0==>5.1 transition. Probably I was further confused by /etc/redhat-release: # cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5 (Final) which apparently (based on someother postings) a bug.
