3) Is there a way to get my favorites over to another firefox browser on a diff hdd?
I don't believe you can install Gimp 2.6.6 in 12.0. The dependencies have changed and or been updated.
Slackware 12.0 does not have gegl, babl, nor PyGTK for starters, which are all required by Gimp 2.6.6. 2.6.6 also requires GTK2+ version 2.12.5 or higher, Slackware 12.0 has version 2.8.20. There are some other packages that would also have to be updated which are dependencies of the dependencies. You might - in the long run - be better off upgrading to 13.0 which comes with Gimp 2.6.6. By the time you update and install everything needed for Slackware 12.0 to run Gimp 2.6.6, you'll have a system with most of the already updated packages from 13.0.
roger that disturbed1, I don't hav any motivation to do a full upgrade to slackware13 on a PIII 600e HPT366 mobo. 1 of Slackware's greatest feature is flexibility. I should be able to upgrade gimp2.2.6 since it is built for i486 machine. I want bluefish Rworkman built the slackpkgs and the in addition built gegl and babl as dependencies.
Right now I am focused on settingup my web server finally and its coming together. Another Question*** Question now is whether I can get the IPTABLES setup. Have to find CLCmds and related files I have to input iptable info into. Then front end tool or gui. Thanks
"It Works!"
Now should a create a "Group" and "User" Where I don't have to be root to store webpages?
Still have DNS, DHCP, not sure howto proceed b/c i have DHCP ISP.
Do i have setup PPP0e to input all my ISP's info? Do I disable my 2Wire Gateway and just run it as a modem? Then setup Slackware as Gateway, Router and DHCPd to work around dyanmic IP?
I've seen mini dns and dhcpd tuts out there
Also hav to learn to use Mysql,PHP and CGI.
Mysql is working
How do I chk to see if php is installed and cgi?
One more ques; can i run 2hdds in one slackware box?
Hav an extra 160gb hdd.
