And sometimes I even need a full capability update to get the versions I want, like for the newer NVidia driver: rpm -qa |grep ^nvidia-gfxG02 test "$?" = 0 && zypper in -C 'nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-pae>195.0' 'x11-video-nvidiaG02>195.0' Due to some strange reason zypper saw these as a "vendor change" so TO get the 195 versions I needed something like this. The test, of course, is to make sure there already was a gfx02 version of the NVidia driver and libs installed (because I need a "install" command, but I want a update). -- ******************************************************************* ** Eef Hartman, Delft University of Technology, dept.
