yeah, heres an example.
as soon as i saw that there was an issue with kde, i went to my shell and typed yum -y update

guess what?

Downloading Packages:
-clipped-
(10/14): kdelibs-3.5.0-0. 100% |=========================| 18 MB 02:02
(11/14): kdelibs-devel-3. 100% |=========================| 36 MB 04:01
-clipped-

Complete!
[root@server ~]#

now, 2 things to point out. 1, i dont really use kde on the server. its only there for a remote login if i need to use something in the graphical interface...
2. i dont have a keyboard or mouse hooked up to the server so i use all cli anyway on the server unless point #1 takes precedence.

now to update my laptop using you (yast online updater). easy shtuff.
