Hi, thanks for the advice.  I tried that command and it's been updating 
for a couple of days (takes so long because of the prompts that come up 
that stop the installs).  Anyway, now portmanager always gets to a 
certain point and my computer reboots.  I looked in the logfile and 
there isn't much there, this is at the end of the file:
Sun Apr 30 16:36:17 2006
 kdelibs-3.4.2_1                     /x11/kdelibs3                
    OLD                                 
kdelibs-3.5.2_1                     /x11/kdelibs3 

Any idea what could be causing this?

Thanks again for the help

/Brian
