I have Fedora Core 3. The system requirements for this acrobat reader isLinux 2.2 kernel on X86 computer. Can anyone tell me how I can download this? When I clicked the download link on the adobe website, the download manager came up and the ok button was gray and I couldn't click it.
Please respond. Thanks.
Hi Nathan,
Try visiting:

Follow the directions for setting up his repository in yum, then simply type (as root or w/ sudo)...
yum install acroread
The first time you run yum, you'll have a bit of waiting to do, as each repository in the /etc/yum.repos.d folder has to download header files for each available package. On a fast connection it could take 15 minutes, but I've seen it take over an hour from a cable-modem connection.
After this first header download, using yum is really very easy and convenient, so you may want to google around for some more info on how to best use yum. You can use it to install almost any piece of available software, but more importantly, you can use it to keep your system up to date.
Aloha, Chris
