Dear friends: [Using the Centos 4.4 DVD) I will spend the next few days reading the documentation for Centos/RedHat. But meanwhile, I would like, while reading it, to listen to my favorite radio programs which require RealPlayer. So, my question is simply: should I download the RealPlayer RPM from www.real.com or should I download it from an rpm repository source? While I am at, what about

Dear friends: I installed Sun's Java manually by downloading their Red Hat RPM. I followed instructions and the install came off fine (Done!), but when I try to play it, it won't work.

Dear friends: I've been trying for some time to install my copy of Word97 (which I own, having purchased it directly from Microsoft with my own license number). I have tried the latest Wine 0.9.14. To do this, I first UNinstalled version 0. 9.1-4 (PCLINUXOS), then installed the new wine from source. The source install asked me to install a number of font files, which I did (bison,

Dear friends: Using Centos 5. I have two physical drives. During install, I made sure to check hdb as well as hda. Both were listed as partitions (which is correct). But my fstab file does not show hdb. How do I make sure that hdb has been formatted and is part of my file system. If hdb is not formatted, how do I format it, please. Sorry for the question. I am a newbie. d[sher at localhost

Dear friends: [Using Wine 20041019 and Winetools 2.1.2] Inter Explorer 6 SP1 installed fine, including Shockwave Flash (listed as one of the installed programs), but when I try to actually play Flash on a web site, I get an error message saying that due to my security setting for Active X, Flash cannot play.

Dear friends: Just installed Centos 5. Very impressed but as a newbie I am a bit confused about the the role of the Software Updater vs. Add/Remove and Yum(ex).

Dear friends: New to Centos, DVD version 4.4. Fabulous distro, rich in features, applications, very stable and robust. My first install failed to boot up (after rebooting, switching in Bios from CD/DVD to hard drive. This was probably because I chose to install the Grub boot loader in MBR. I got the error message: GRUB, Stage 2 Loading... But it never loaded up. Nothing happened. So, I

Dear friends: Problem Solved! I had to donwload a new copy of GAG, install a new copy on a floppy, then reboot, switch to diskette in the Bios and only then does the GAG install/uninstall menu show up. Clicked on Uninstall and GAG not only uninstalled itself from the hard drive but also restored the old MBR. Now Centos boots up correctly. Thank God. Benjamin

Dear friends: I am using PCLINUXOS version .92. My problem, simply put, is that I cannot SAVE or LOAD documents in MSWord97 using the older Codeweavers Crossover Office Wine 1.3.5.

In fact, it wouldn't even
