Hi everyone
Here is my dilemma; I installed ekiga, which also installed about a
dozen pkgs to resolve dependencies...
But ekiga is not working... it tries to show a wizard but for some

Now I want to uninstall ekiga as well as the dozen pkgs it installed; is

Hi, Eamon -
I'm running SuSE 10.2 on a laptop, but I use KDE instead of Gnome, so

First things first: My apologies to Tom Buskey, who I did confuse
with the other Tom (Charron) in this Gordian-knot-of-a-thread. Sorry
to jump down your throat like that, Mr. Buskey!

Ah. Cool. And potentially useful -- I can definitely
Extended memory (CPU-addressable memory above 1 MB) didn't see a
lot of use before the 386, mainly because of the aforementioned
inability of the 286 to switch out of protected mode once it got in.
Aww, shucks! no need to let a little thing like that get in your way:

Allow me to recommend 'Fire in the Valley' which is a great story of the
development of the personal computer. The first edition was in 1984, so it
didn't really show the rise of things like Microsoft or the Internet. The
second edition was done about 1999, but still had a primary focus on
There is a perl script, available from

which will list all packages which are not depended on by other
packages, if you have a repository like /var/lib/dpkg/status
available -- I don't know whether rpm sufferers have one but there
must be something like it.
I'm facing the same issue now, since I'm trying to figure out how to
view .mpg files and watch my DVDs on my laptop. The kaffeine/xine
set-up OOTB from SuSE won't permit me to do so because of the
licensing problems, etc. BUT, I can't find a simple set (meaning one
or two) of RPMs that I can
