Thanks for the response. It turns out that some programs, including dosemu, are not on the CD's, only the DVD's.
Yes, that's a known "feature" :-(
It would be nice if the Yast program indicated this, as dosemu did not answer any searches during the install, but when I used Yast, it showed up in the search.
True, Yast should indicate that some program is only available in the DVD - - or by FTP.
When installing dosemu, the install is different for a root install vs. a user install. I wanted a user install. The solution was to download the two .tgz files and install using tar.
I still don't understand why you need that... why you don't install the SuSE rpm, which I think YAST can get instead by FTP from the SuSE server or a mirror.
Now I'm running into permission issues with my partitions, but I am preparing a separate msg so there is no thread confusion.
Well, that's normal with a user install... As I say, I don't understand why you insist on a user install, specially with a program like that that's going to need root privileges to access somethings. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFCtqaDtTMYHG2NR9URAvX8AJ46Mi3VWd+zhPnTFRTXujLtmR6X3QCfbzO1 6iLZULC6hNYZtM8aDix3Qr8= =JBPP -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
