yeah, but Fry's is 60 miles from me, it is much easier to use smart :)
smart found xfsdump. I have found when I run smart update then use YOU
there are still apps to update. Each program seems to pick up updates
the other misses... I just today downloaded the HP rpm from HP, for my
new hpoj5610 all-in-one. I ran smart upgrade and it updated that
driver....
