Go to http://easyurpmi.zarb.org/
make sure you click proceed to next step after each step
then use "urpmi.update -a" to update your database
then use "urpmi --update --auto-select --auto" to update your system
or both together "urpmi.update -a; urpmi --update --auto-select --auto"
remember to remove the "s

ps Im still running 10.1 fully updated with no probs.
