I was able to rpm real player 8 and yahoo messenger, as well as the xmms plug in for mp3 support. I still can't install my printer driver or java runtime support. Can't edit /etc/fstab. AND, since installing the xmms plugin, now I can't play ANY files, (b4 I could at elast play .wav and .ogg files). Now I keep getting a message that indicates there is another porcess using the soundcard (or that it is not set up properly--I checked the configuration and it is properly configured). Oddly, I get no sound from the cdplayer, either...hmmm...nah, that couldn't still be running, I rebooted. The Yahoo messenger is now working fine, accept that I inadvertently told it to run on start up and can't figure out wehre to change that (I just close it). I can't find the realplayer anywhere, but when I try to install from the rpm again, the machine assures me that it is installed. I looked in /usr/bin /usr/share /usr/local, /sbin/* etc, etc, etc...nothing. I also have not been able to run /sbin/rhn_register (still get a :no such file or directory message). So, it seems one thing was fixed and others broken... tony > > > > > >Message: 13 >Date: Sun, 27 Oct 2002 11:35:45 -0800 >From: Jesse Keating <hosting@j2solutions.net> >To: psyche-list@redhat.com >Subject: Re: rhn-register >Organization: j2Solutions >Reply-To: psyche-list@redhat.com > >On Sun, 27 Oct 2002 09:27:59 -0800 (PST) >anthony baldwin <mrbaldwin@school-library.net> wrote: > ># Let me correct one thing from my previous post ># When I try to run /usr/sbin/rhn_register ># I am told there is no such directory or file. > >up2date --register > >-- >Jesse Keating >For Web Services and Linux Consulting, Visit --> j2Solutions.net >Mondo DevTeam (www.mondorescue.org) > >Was I helpful?
