That brought up the correct version so how do I change the Desktop Icon to 
point to is. It must mean the cvs version is still somewhere even though I 
used YaSt to install the RPM. My guess is there are two installs so how do I 
remove a cvs version?

Thanks for your great product, I'm glad I've been able to do most of my old 
publish work with scribus so I'm finally only depending on TurboTax to do my 
taxes under windows. I plan to move to SuSE 10.0 after its out and scribus 
etc work with it.

Thanks again.
