Hi. First, my great appreciation to those that have answered my questions thus far. The transition to Linux has been greatly eased by it.
Second,third, and fourth, I have 3 questions: 1) I note on the RPM listing at http://uug.byu.edu/apt/redhat/8.0/en/i386/RPMS.freshrpms/ that the file mpeg2dec-0.3.1-fr1.i386.rpm is available. Will this allow me to play DVD's in Linux? If not, what does it do, and what would allow me to play DVD's? 2) I have attempted to install the Shockwave plugin for Mozilla. I followed the directions on the Shockwave site. When I got to step 4, which reads: Navigate to this directory and from the command line type ./flashplayer-installer to run the installer (Note: this can only be run from the command line). The installer will instruct you to shut down your browser(s). I received the message: bash: ./flashplayer-installer: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied How does one deal with this? 3) I note on the UUG RPM pages that there are RPMs and SRPMs. What is the difference? Many thanks for the help-- Andrew _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://phantom.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/newbies
