That page seems familiar to me. I may have used it to get the f8
install going (but I didn't like the --nodeps option, hence the
modifying of the rpm - I seem to recall there was 1 file openmotif
installed that X also installs, so I just needed to get rid of
that file in the openmotif rpm).
  


i used that how-to and although bad(tm) i did the nodeps thing, so far 
its OK so i am happy enough


thanks

 Hi
 
 Has anyone got the citrix client to work with Fedora 9 at all? I am 
 about to install an F9 desktop but need citrix.
 
 thanks
 

I remember going through a lot of nonsense to get it working on F8,
I'm not sure if I ever tried F9. Basically I downloaded the linux
rpm from citrix, then I had to dig up an old openmotif rpm from
an old redhat (or maybe early fedora) CD. I found some tool somewhere
that would let me edit an rpm by extracting all the bits, editing them,
then putting the bits back together. I used that to transform the
openmotif rpm into one that didn't have conflicts with the newer X
libs, then was able to install along with the citrix client and
it all actually works. (Of course there were also all the libxcb
bugs, but those are resolved in latest updates).

I also tried the java client, but it didn't really work very well
even with real sun java installed.

thanks for the info - i am a little worried that i'll end up not being 
able to connect which i need to do.
