.deb to .rpm
 

I am using Ubuntu 7.10
i want to install some drivers, and i have obtained the drivers from the company's website.
The problem is, Ubuntu runs with .deb, but the drivers provided are .rpm
what should i do?
i have tried searching for the .deb drivers in Synamptic Package Manager, but no result

thank you very much

You would probably give some useful information about what drivers you were looking for, what the company's website was, etc., etc.

To convert rpm to deb you can try alien: install it by Synaptic, then from the command line issue
by default the rpm package will be converted to deb. You can also use the option -i to install at once, but I suggest to inspect the content of the newly created deb package before installing.

You can follow this guide,but if there was tar.gz or similar package,I suggest that you download that package and compile it.

Ya, I wouldn't be too hopeful about alien on a driver package. But if you tell us what driver you are trying to install, I am pretty sure one of us will know where you can get a .deb for it.
