    Hi Knute, love that name. I'm Danish and my dad when he went through 
Ellis Island they "fixed" his name from Frode to Fred.

    You didn't mention which version of Fedora you have. Please tell us 
that. Your problem sounds very serious and may require a new loading of 
your computer.

    I am using Fedora Core 6 and right now and for the last 6 hours I 
have been getting 600 MB of updates in 450 packages. Takes a lot of time.

    After the updates my computer may not come up at all :-)
