Ah don't mind him Daxziz, some of us don't mind helping one bit. And we even won't bite your head off in the process (like it would have hurt for him to just ignore your question, heh). I remember back when I was a Unix n00b and asked tons of questions, but like you said, sometimes it's easier to ask and get a straight answer than to do several hours of research and come up dry.

Feel free to post as often as you like when you need help.

For irc, i like irc.redhat.com, i think irc.openprojects.net is the same thing (just a redirect), anyways #redhat #slackware and some other linux distro channels are on there. Usually around 40 users in each, and they actually are happy to help you. They get my sound in Slackware working in no time :)

Hehe.. thx.... so I will.

Here I am.. sitting at Linux.. sadly not Mandrake 8.1 as I would have wanted to, but.. ah well.. I'll just have to make a update. Atleast I was able to get online ;)
For some reason did my 2K die in the process.. now I'm not very happy about that :( some exe which wasn't found or similar.... not good.. I'll try to find it's original name and see if I can get it backed up and transfered to my system again.

Well what can I say.. you guys where all right about Lycoris.. worse **** do you have to search long for.

Now... What I'm hunting right now is a cd burner program. in that RPM format ;) Suggestions ? Anybody ?
Is there some way which I can gain access to my second harddrive.. it's a Win partition.
Uh.. and a zip exttractor wouldn't be bad either ;)

Under my install of Wine did it say Error:
cups-libs <>=S 1.1.12 behøves af wine-20020312-1
libcrypto.so.2 <>=S behøves af wine-20020312-1
libssl.so.2 <>=S behøves af wine-20020312-1

*** behøves af means needed by ***

ok, real questions! no problem!

you just don't have the cups-libs openssl-devel packages installed. install it. a good place to go for errors like that is rpmfind.net, just search for the filename, and you should find out what package it comes from, and then you can install that package yourself.

burner: eroaster.

second harddrive: search the site for answers.

I can't download the openssl-devel.rpm from rpmfind.net :confused: it says the file / location doesn't exist.. and if I go to their website, can't I find anything else than tar files.

Know any other place to download the RPM install ?

Got the 2 other rpms, but it seems to that they both need the openssl-devel pack.

Cheers
-Daxziz

Just out of curiosity, why werent you able to put Mandrake on?

http://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2htm...penssl%2Ddevel

you've alerady got a version of it on your cd's tho

I'm am using Mandrake.. just not 8.1. ;)


-Daxziz

Acid.. I should have.. But for some reason is by cd2 unreadable, so I'm running without many packs.

Anyway, I went in and downloaded that pack. When I tryied to intsall it, it said openssl <>=S 0.9.6-7.1mdk behøves af openssl-devel-0.9.6-7-1mdk

*behøves af still means needed by ;)*

So I thought.. ok.. I'll use rpmfind to find that pack, and I did find a openssl.rpm and( 1.5 mb in size ) and it installed just fine ), but the openssl-devel still says that it needs that pack. What's going on ?


-Daxziz

ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/Mandrake/upd....1mdk.i586.rpm
ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/Mandrake/upd....1mdk.i586.rpm

you want those two, installed with

rpm -Uvh openssl......rpm openssl-devel.......rpm

I didn't get that!

I got those to RPM's though. I installed the one without a prob, the other reports the above mentioned error.

I read about WineX.. it sounds cool, but I got 2 probelms.

I1) 'm not 18, so I can't buy anything over the web, even though I would like to purchase WineX.

2) My parents won't do it. They're afrait of their cards being abused if they do so.. they don't trust the internet buying system at all :(

So I'm stuck with the normal Wine project, unless somebody have uploaded WineX to his own site, and let ppl dl for free.

Now I see it says Seamlessly.. I donno that word... is it a program ?

It annoys me especially because WineX is said to run BG. :mad:

-Daxziz

winex is free. http://www.transgaming.com/

Well.. tell me how to compile it plz.. caus I have no clue if it wasn't gcc I was to use ;)

And it does also say that it's without a certain part of the code.:/

EDIT: Hmm that $cvs stuff what's that ? And what is needed to get to their source ?
