Don't make irrelevant replies to postings (your message is NOT a reply to the digest that you quoted). 2. Don't quote entire digests when you do reply to one. 3. See the guidelines for using this list: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines 4. Read documentation. e.g. http://docs.fedoraproject.org/user-guide/f11/en-US/html/chap-User_Guide-Managing_software.html Now a quick example about your query: To install the Pidgin instant messaging program, using the command line, the root user would type in the following command, hit enter, then confirm the installation when prompted: yum install pidgin -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
