    I sympathise - I've been there myself! In the past, I found I had to resort to a reinstall to get everything working properly again, but when apt for SuSE became available, I found I could usually install new software using that, rather that YaST or YOU. Take a look at http://linux01.gwdg.de/apt4rpm/ for more info. I am sure there used to be a ximian apt repository available, which would probably make dependency resolution easier but I'm not sure if it's still there and I don't use Ximian Gnome any more. I am sure others will know the answer to that one.

    Good luck.
