I installed fedora core 1 on a Compaq Evo N180 Laptop..

loading the update has really been a pain as the either the nic or 
connection to the update service stops in the middle of the download 
process.

Don't think it the nic as I can surf the web and make other 
connections after up2date stops.

Any one else having this problem. I may take a week to get everything 
downloaded.

Maybe there is a switch I can set?

Stewart,
I just fought the same problem. I do not think my solution is eligant 
but it worked. What I did was to use a terminal window and execute the 
up2date -u command. Each time it stopped. I used the control c command 
twice to cancel the up2date session and then restart it again with the 
up2date -u command. The program is able to restart at the correct 
point. You have to watch it but it beats not getting the updates.
Hope this helps until the program get fixed.
John

I think if you check the archives of the Fedora list you will find this 
problem answered several times.

There are 10 types of people in this world. Those that 
understand binary and those that don't.

On terminal you have to run redhat-config-xfree86 and set your dsiplay.
