I've run into similar problems. MandrakeUpdate downloaded all the files into /tmp but did not execute rpm against them. I did rpm -F /tmp/*.rpm and everything worked fine. I closed MandrakeUpdate and restarted it, and it showed nothing needing updates I was running from the shell and watching for errors. After the ftp commands...nothing. It simply didn't continue. .xsession-errors is empty too. -- Scott Brightwell Systems Engineer CTSinc.net
