how to install and check installation
Hi ... i am like the worst newbie you will ever find ... my brother is very good at linux but the problem is he is not here and told me to post here as he learnt most of his stuff reading here ...
I have just started learning RH 9 (using Gnome) ... have some misc. questions ... please guide ...
1) I saw somebody's post on using Mplayer for Mp3 playing on RH but when i click on the mplayer rpm ... it just says "processing headers" and then the window goes away ... where did the file go and where did it install? Also the default Media Player doesn't play mp3z ... i installed an rpm which someone had suggested (here in some thread) but it too just ran for 1 sec and did nothing ...
2) Whenever i install any rpm, it works by itself ... can't i instruct where to install it ? btw, where does all the files install by default ?
3) How Does on switch from Gnome to KDE, i type startx and Gnome starts ...
4) How do i play mp3 files on Gone ...
5) How do i install my DSL modem on Linux, its brand is Xentrix
i know these are different questions but i felt these are too simple to be asked in separate threads ...
i really appreciate your help ... thanks a ton ...
