updates and kde-redhat on FC6?

[Tim Wunder]

Just doing a routine 'sudo yum update' and it appears that some KDE 3.5.7
packages are coming from updates. Is this intended? Should I assume that this
update won't break the kde-redhat bits that are installed?

Wait a bit and try again. I have more 3.5.7 packages (than in your list) that
are listed by yum update right now on FC6, kde-redhat stable. In particular,
kdebase, kdedesk, kdepim ...

I have KDE 3.5.7 bits from kde-redhat testing. These appear to be packages
that updates has updated to 3.5.7 but kde-redhat still has at 3.5.6 (even
including the testing repo). My guess is they're fine.

Actually, it looks like the whole of kde is going to be updated via "updates"
for those (like me) who run "kde-redhat stable". Is that normal? I have
launched it from the laptop, waiting to see how it goes before doing the
workstation.

Than Ngo uploaded kde 3.5.7 packages for FC6 to fedora updates this past
Wednesday (according to the Fedora Updates mailing list). AFAIK, the
kde-redhat packaged bits of KDE 3.5.7 are still in testing. So if you don't
have testing enabled, the updates you see to KDE 3.5.7 are coming from
Fedora, and not kde-redhat. Now for Fedora 7, there's almost no difference
(as I understand things) between Fedora's KDE and kde-redhat's, but I'm not
sure that's true with FC6 (which I'm using).

Let's hope Rex chimes in and clarifies what's going on...

Just FYI, I re-started yum update today and it all went fine.

Well, whatever these updates did, ultimately it seems to have cause X to crash
upon exit for me.

I now have (on FC6):

kdetoys.i386 7:3.5.6-3.fc6 installed
kdeutils.i386 6:3.5.7-1.fc6 installed

When I log out of KDE, X (or possibly just kdm) crashes and I'm sent to a
console login. When I switch runlevels to 3 and back to 5 (telinit 3; telinit
5) kdm comes back up and I can log into KDE normally.

Any ideas what's wrong?

Upgradig the nvidia driver to the current (100.14.11) seems to have solved the
problem.

Sorry for the noise...
