Tell you what: install it on a hobby machine and give it a spin, then get back to me. Red Carpet is three rpms, no configuration needed. Just give it a try.
For 9.1 where?
ftp://ftp.ximian.com/pub/redcarpet2/suse-91-i586
You want rcd, rug and red-carpet. rcd is the daemon that does all the work, rug is a command line client (always good to have around) and red-carpet is a gui client.
when they're installed, do /etc/init.d/rcd start, then
rug service-add http://open-carpet.org/services/gwdg
Then "kdesu red-carpet" will launch the client, in the "channels" you can select which channels you want to subscribe to, I suggest KDE, packman and suse-91-i586
THANKS, Anders!! All went well except running kdesu....failed. I logged onto KDE as root, and setup myself as user to use red-carpet. Now, it comes up with a LOT of KDE files for update........are these indeed updates of what I have installed, or just all of the KDE files that are available? I didn't dare tell it to install anything until I'm sure of what I'm doing with it. Thanks again!
