Hi Kevin et al,
Sorry for the delay in response, I was away on a short weekend vacation.

In English mine says:

DB library
error: db4 error(-30974) from dbenv->failchk: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run
database recovery
error: cannot open Packages index using db4 - (-30974)
I fixed the second problem by executing (as root):
rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db*
rpm --rebuilddb
This allowed urpmi and the graphical package management applications to work
again.
I am running the 3.3.6 kernel to make the NVidia driver work, though.
Thanks! That rebuilt the rpm database. But when I tried to re-boot into
the new kernel it was then stuck again.
I then rebooted into the 3.3.6 kernel and checked for/and updated my
system and tried to re-boot into the new kernel and this seems to have
worked.
Hope the wrinkles to the new kernel update have been fixed. It would be
sad to hear from my 78 year old mother that there was a hitch in her
updates. She likes to play her solitaire along with watching TV
(tv-card) on her Mageia.
Cheers,
Marc
