Kai, Yes, I've been using Centos plenty long enough to pickup a few tid-bits of information that have been useful, but a lot of the info passed on the mailing list is either way over my head, or I have no use for it now or in the future. As for the "exact problem" -- it's an error message, and I don't like seeing error messages when I have no clue where to even begin looking besides the source that is causing them. As for learning from earlier questions, yes, as a matter of a fact, I do learn from them, and archive a LOT of threads that deal with things I've seen before or something I feel I might need/use later on. There's nothing wrong with being curious about error messages, I just don't like to see them as I don't know what else might be being affected. As for the cpan, the modules were not available via any repository, hence cpan. All of the modules I grabbbed were for one package and only one package that deals with my weather data and its software. Ever heard of LDM or Gempak.. both required some modules before it would even install, and they were NOT available anywhere else. This software does not get updated but once in a blue moon, and has nothing to do with Centos itself, other than being hosted on it. One last thing.. I don't appreciate one bit you taking jabs at me and my methods. You don't know me, and know even less about how I used my computers. I follow instructions that come with packages I install, not any kind of maybe this or maybe that. So in the future, I'd appreciate it if you'd leave off the jabs and stabs about my knowledge of what I'm doing. I'm no guru by any sort, but if I can't figure something out, I thought the mailing list was where to ask, unless you think every problem ever occured is covered under some form of google... I assure you -- IT"S NOT. Sam _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
