No, I understood that you wanted to downgrade, but you were inputting the names into rpm incorrectly. I've never had much luck with downgrading, so I'm not going to give broken advice (there's seems to be enough on the list already at times). I was just hoping to enlighten.The output format from the yum logs are different from the package name that you need to pass to RPM. The version string should be separated from the package name by a dash, and the i386 shouldn't be needed (unless you're running multilib). Your command should be more like:I'm sorry Justin you simply do not understand. I have to replace the existing updated rpm with an older one. hard to do!rpm -e udev-113-8.fc7That should match the output you would find if you were to query RPM just by package name and not by package name + version string. On my machine:[justin@ra ~]$ rpm -q udev udev-095-17.fc6 Justin W
