Well, sourceforge.net will have them all, just search, but here's a couple
gkrellm - system monitor
http://web.wt.net/~billw/gkrellm/gkrellm.html
mplayer - multimedia player
www.mplayerhq.hu
The upgrade can vary between distros. I have no clue what tools are available to mandrake. |

Assuming whatever file you are talking about is executable, go to the directory it is located in and type ./filename
It may help if you tell us what file |
