[X Newbies] ooooh!

I must confess this is completely mystifying.
I have enabled the root user, I have run the scripts, I have trashed 
everything by hand... and I still get the "newer software" installed 
warning... meaning I cannot install the correct version.

Has anyone by chance installed this thing and found it useful? I'd like 
to know before I continue with the hassle of sorting this out.

Thanks for all your input folks.
