Michael, I didn't really see anyone answer this directly for you. If you already know then I appologise. I don't know all the ins and outs of rpms but usually for a source rpm like you mentioned you can just run: "rpmbuild --rebuild filename.src.rpm" run it as root then if you check in the /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386 directory you will find the compiled rpm. Before you work too hard though you can get updated gkrellm packages at www.freshrpms.net Good luck -Darren On Sat, 2003-04-19 at 21:45, Michael Fratoni wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > On Saturday 19 April 2003 09:16 am, Patrick wrote: > > On Sun, 2003-04-13 at 22:07, lovswr1 wrote: > > > > I would like to install this program > > > (http://web.wt.net/~billw/gkrellm/gkrellm.html) on my redhat 9 > > > system.
