Smart
 

I just went through the steps to install smart everything seems to have gone ok but when I go to test smart to see if it opens .rpm files I get an error that says "ZMD does not appear to be running" Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

hmm. Smart does not require ZMD, so this sounds a bit odd. Maybe the error message is presented because you are still using zen-updater ( it might be running in the background).

But anyways you can start the deamon from terminal/konsole as root:
