    I ran up2date last night on a machine with RH 3.0-ES,
    and have had various problems since.
                                                          
                             
    First, I had to restart xfs before the X server would
    start.
                                                          
                             
    When I got it running, I saw that all the gnome icons
    were gone. (I'm fairly new and I need to icons to try
    to maneuver up2date to try again.)
                                                          
                             
    Also, I noticed that the old mozilla is gone, but the
    version (1.4.3) that should have replaced it never
    installed.
                                                          
                             
    I tried installing that by hand and got failed
    dependencies, although the files are there. For
    example,
                                                          
                             
    libX11.so.6 is needed by mozilla-1.4.3-3.0.4
                                                          
                             
    but

    but
                                                          
                             
    libX11.so.6 exists in /usr/X11R6/lib
                                                          
                             
    The new XFree should be 4.3.0-78.EL, but XFree86
    -version tells me I have 4.3.0-69.EL
                                                          
                             
    rpm -q says neither one is installed.
                                                          
                             
    Help! I'm lost.
