RE: [Plug] Remote X Session





I looked at the errata on redhat.com and it states:
8. Solution:
   This update release will give a Red Hat Linux 6.0 user a tested version
of updated GNOME
   packages. It is not a required update, but GNOME users will find the
enhancements considerable.
   Download all of the required RPMS into a empty directory and run the
command:

   rpm -Fvh *.rpm

I can't find a reference to the switch -F (caps). What does it do and where
 did you find it (the reference)? It's not in TFM.

If you're running redhat 6, go get the errata. There's a TON of
X errata. I had similar problems, upgraded packages, problem went away.

When I grow up, I wanna be more like me.
I had a clue. I didn't like it. I took it back and exchanged it for an
attitude.
