Dear friends: Is there a single source for the multimedia applications that are not included with Centos 5: RealPlayer, Mplayer, mplayerplug-in, Acrobat Reader, Java, libdvdcss, etc.?

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: 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: 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: Thanks to Ekkehard, I found out how to launch Word97. I went to the .wine/drive_c directory and then (using quotes around "Program Files" and "Microsoft Office") I cd's to where Winword.exe was and then typed, within this subdirectory: wine WINWORD.EXE. That launched Word97 at last. But when I try to save a document, all I get is the first letter of the file

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

Hi, I have an Asus terminator C3 with 512Mb. It has a Via P3-800Mhz CPU, with a VIA chipset. It's currently running FC6. I wanted to wipe the machine and install CentOS5. It boots from the CD to the linux prompt, then it fully loads vmlinux, then starts initrd.img, and somewhere at that point it reboots. I have tried: noapic, noapm, noprobe. Same, somewhere during initrd.img or at then

Dear friends: I have been trying to install MSOffice using Crossover. I have an old license from 2002, which entitled me to install the Crossover Plugin and the CrossoverOffice Set up. Support for them has expired, but both programs uinstalled fine into their own directory in KDE. But I do have a problem installing MSOffice.

Dear friends: I decided to go out and buy the latest issue of Linux Format with the FreeBSD 6 CD. I am very glad I did. FreeBSD is tough to install, but after spending several hours I finally succeeded in doing a perfect installation. ONE BIG PROBLEM: When I removed the CD and rebooted, I got into my Windows XP (I have two separate disks, one for Windows, one of FreeBSD). There was no way to get

After a great deal of apparently irrelevant kerfuffle, with which I have been boring this list, I managed to do: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade without getting error messages. I was told that there was nothing to do. I then (to make sure?) did: sudo apt-get install r-base and was told: > r-base is already the newest version (3.5.2-1bionic). > 0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0

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. Thinking the problem might be resolved in the latest Crossover Office 5, I downloaded the Tryout version but the same problem occurs (i.e. at least for me) in this latest version. In fact, it wouldn't even
