(^_^)-- (^_^)Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 You're right, it (my reply) should have been take offlist. Granted I only got about two hours of sleep (if that) after an all nighter trying to create a bartpe bootcd, and downloading and installing 65 updates 10.2, and trying to figure out to install a simple program, still no excuse. So I do apologize for my (latest) outburst. Why are there so many different installation technics? rpm, .run, tar.gz, .bin. I mean right there on the website it tells you how to do it, followed the commands exactly, and it (shell program) says that the file/directory doesn't exist. Maybe (probably) I'm missing something here. if the program is "install-realplayer10gold.bin" for instance, The file is in /home/(username), I'm in the directory /home/(username), do a dir and the file is there, I issue the command(s) that is/are listed on the website for this program, what else am I suppose to be doing? I su'd because that is required to install a program. hmmm? Too many people spend money they haven't earned to buy things they don't want, to impress people they don't like. -Will Rogers -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
