up2date works both either from Gnome menu or command line...
no idea if any strangeness in *rhn* files.But in .rhn-applet.conf I find 
the following lines:
remindTimeStamp[comment]=None
remindTimeStamp=1121931559.55

that I assume not an issue, as they are present also for other users.
Another difference, if I pass over with the mouse for working users I 
see the number (if any) of packages to be updated, for the not working 
user I see the description of Icon...what does it mean???

Any idea??
