Don't need to use it if your system is fully updated!

Found it, thanks. There is even a KDE Minime version.

A bit off topic, but historically relevant: I hadn't heard of the problems with ibiblio. This is sad because it was one of the great public sites for Linux and many other alternative things for many years. It was originally named sunsite because it ran on Sun equipment. I lived nearby to Chapel Hill and UNC where it was, and still is, located. In the early days of the rollout of the public Internet UNC gave a free email address to any NC resident. My first email address was there. This was before the graphical Internet when it was all command line.

You don't need to do anything except update regularly.

Cool.:)  I guess I misunderstood Tex' post:

Our primary host ibiblio is going away for the most part. For now you can find all of the recent isos at

http://pclosusers.com/isos/

It is my understanding a new primary host is being set up then all of the mirrors will need to be contacted with updated information on how to rsync from the new primary host of the PCLinuxOS distribution. This may change as things progress.

Really shouldn't be using ibiblio in the first place! It was the server that all the other repositories were using to sync with.  But hey things change with time.

Free email addresses, like we do here at pclosmail. Only we don't limit it to only folks in NC.  If you use PCLOS you too can get a free email address such as username@pclosmail.com

I always/sometimes get confused with ibiblio and other repo stuff.

So, ibiblo should not be checked?  Mine says something about megagames.

Megagames should be come from the ftp.vim.org repo not anything to do with the ibiblio repo.  As far as ibiblio, I am not sure what its status will be or become.
