Two choices: 1) Go here <http://rpm.pbone.net/> mark Fedora 12 and Fedora 13. Enter switchdesktop into the search window. Pick the one that you want. 2a) Or go here <http://mirrors.reflected.net/fedora/linux/releases/> select the 13 folder (the 12 folder is empty). Select "Everything". Select your Arch. Select 'os'. Select 'Packages'. Search for 'switchdesktop'. 2b) Or go here <http://archives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/> if you want the Fedora 12 package. Follow a similar pat as in 2a -- David _______________________________________________ xfce mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce
