Re: Updating Redflag Desktop 4

Hi Ben,

Redflag desktop 4.0 support online-update, I learned this from Redflag
staffs. There is a "System update" choice in the package manager tools
in the control panel. You can try that. But now there was few update
there.

Another thing is that Redflag desktop 4.0 is nearly the same level as RH
9.0.

Best regards.
