Hi Bright, stay with us. It seems there is something wrong with your internet connection. That 'wrong' thing was not there when you installed apache. installing mysql is technically nothing different (except that the files are a bit bigger).
Once we got your internet patched up again, you should be very good to go and install many *more* applications and more up-to-date ones too, than are included in the Suse DVD, just because ubuntu downloads additional packages when you tell it to. As you have seen offlist, I did send an email to both DN & Orange. -- rgds, Reinier Battenberg Director Mountbatten Ltd. +256 758 801 749 www.mountbatten.net On Monday 02 August 2010 17:40:58 Bright Onapito wrote: > This is becoming really complicated.
