Hi everybody,
I would like to know what RPM is? I wanted to download Java Console and I had the possibility to choose between RPM packages and normal packages. What is the difference? Any idea whether there are drivers for my graphic card - ATI Mobility Radeon 9700? Or any idea where I could find it out, so I can quit bothering you?
Kind regards, delirium
P.S. I hope this is no spam anymore, because I have answers to my previous question now ;-)
Hello, http://fedoranews.org/alex/tutorial/rpm/ is a great tutorial http://www.rpm.org
The best application with Fedora :
Yum and apt help you, they do the dirty work for you : Resolving dependencies, downloading packages, installing then in the order. yum.conf allow you to add extras repositories.
You can use apt on fedora core too. http://ayo.freshrpms.net I have attached a sources.list file. Just download apt, intall it rpm -ihv apt...rpm
cp sources.list /etc/apt/
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade # this will upgrading the system with new versions of software.
apt-get install nomdupackage
#Search package that have network in the name or description apt-cache search network
#Why not ? apt-get rermove kde
Best Regards, Jean-Marie Renouard
