Consolehelper, provided by the usermode package (version number is
probably wrong because this is a RHL 9 machine):
[whooper@testweb whooper]$ ll `which up2date`
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Nov 21 14:16 /usr/bin/up2date
-> consolehelper
[whooper@testweb whooper]$ rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/bin/consolehelper
usermode-1.67-2
[whooper@testweb whooper]$
