Well did you download and burn the RH cd yourself?

ludwig W · 05-06-2003, 02:39 PM

yes,why?

neo77777 · 05-06-2003, 02:42 PM

Have you checked md5sum's on iso's you burnt???

ludwig W · 05-06-2003, 02:45 PM

no.What are they?
The cd was fine,no problems installing RH8.

If you will go to www.gurulabs.com and click on their downloads there is a Enlightenment package you can download there that my Red Hat Instructor built and it works great!!!! IT does not however come with the distro. NO!!!!

nice site.
Still, the files he uses are the same ones I have,so it's not gonna help me

I am pretty much convinced that there is an md5sum utility for windows, b/c I am assuming you are burning iso's within windows environment, you can get Unix tools for Win32 here http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/, the mirror where you got your iso's should have file containing md5sum for the iso's and you should run from cmd
md5sum \path\to\RH\iso\on\your\hd
the sums should match up otherwise you got a coaster, as far as I remember Enlightment on the second CD so the first might be OK but the second cd can be a coaster.

But my cd burnt fine without any problems and installed ok.Are you seriously saying that,even though the cd seems fine and I have installed RH8 on it a number of times, that it is a coaster because you think that Enlightenment is on RH8 and because I don't have it on my cd's,I have a coaster??????

Come on,that seems a bit far fetched.

Why,of all the programs missing,would Enlightenment be the only one?

let me verify once more if the enlightenment is on CD's, and I was a bit harsh about coaster, actually it might be a corrupted download. I'll get back to you after I verify if enlightment is shipped with RH.

It seems like RH has stopped shipping E with 8.0 release. I should've known better before opening my mouth, oh well. I guess you can still get packages required for E at http://www.rpmfind.net or in the link I provided before.

ok,thanks m8

The problem I had with RH8 and E wasa it always complained of a missing libImlib.so.1 file. I checked the path and existence of the file; no problems with that. What else could be wrong?

To change from say Metacity to enlightenment under RH8/9, open a console and type :-

killall metacity; enlightenment &
