repo?)
Date: Sun, 31 May 2015
There are probably a dozen answers to this. If you have access to
gmail/google Calender, it works extremely well, integrating with most
smart-phones, etc. It is web based, which may or may not be an issue for
you. Also, look at Zimbra Desktop, or for that matter, the open source
Zimbra if you want it for more than yourself. Another option is
Thunderbird, which has a calender and task list built in as well. I
have run into all of these first as mail clients, but I have always used
the calenders as well. I am currently using Google and Zimbra Desktop
both, one for home and one for work. Admittedly, these are not Linux
specific, but it should at least give you something to use while you
find what you want.

is there a good reminder app in the repo? i need something that can give
daily, monthly, or weekly popups telling me to do something.
for example, on a certain date in the future call somebody about
something.
i tried a program called 'calendar' but it didn't seem to install
correctly.

You can also do yum install /path/to.rpm
If you use the rpm command directly yum complains about it, butt it's no
big deal if it does.

thnx for the help!
there are a handful of apps that i want to install but i can't find
them in the repos. some of them are older files that are no longer
supported. i want them because the newer versions don't work as
well.

Hi Trin,
Go to pbone.net, find the package (rpm) you want to install.
Download the package.
switch to root and install the package
rpm -ivh package.rpm
If you can't find the package for SL on phone, then it
gets interesting.
What did you have in mind?
