Thanks for the reply Craig, but I'm afraid I'm to thick/new to understand what
you're telling me to do. I have found 5.1 among the pacages but cannot get yast
to install it for me :((

So next question. When I installed suse 6.4 I had to do so using (old Yast) as
my pc will not boot from cd, so I ended up with a text based login (bash??) I
have to enter "startx" in order to get to KDE. I would prefer a graphical login
if poss but not too bothered about that, my problem is doing a logout. I logout
of kde which gets me back to the command line. I have tried "logout/exit" ect
ect ect  but whenever I reboot I get the message "/dev/hda6 not unmounted
properly" so how do I shutdown correctly.
Ta for the help
Pete.
