I already installed smart-gui.  B^)  What I'm worried about is the
rcubed_tech_mirror which provides my fglrx/cubbi_suspend2 video driver
(though I'm still waiting for the 2952 one to appear, so I downloaded
livna's .src.rpm and built it myself, so maybe this one isn't as bad as
I think it is.)  I'm already using ATRpms ipw3945 instead of the
non-rpms that shipped with my laptop, and ATRpms mirrors the
cubbi_suspend2 kernels I use, so maybe this will be good enough....

its telling me that the kmod-fglrx rpms for the kernels can't co-exist
with the kmod-fglrx rpms for the cubbi_suspend2 kernels.   grumble,
grumble, grumble

If only Mr Hensler was as quick.  B^)

I figured as much.

Thanks again!
