Linux books for DFS 16754Linux books for DFS 16755 NoStop Here's my Pan on Windows screenshot: Now show me what Pan on Linux looks like (I wiped my Linux parbreastions earlier today, but I remember... Kier Users Push Merits of Linux on the Desktop Linux is very easy to use, and the idea that the open-source operating system is a command-line-driven environment is a misconception, executives... Not on my part. I bet you can reproduce the dependency dialogs. I have a 'main' repository in my Media manager list, plus 3 entries representing the install CDs. It shouldn't matter if you have other entries. Start System Configuration Packaging Browse Available Software (may warn that you're launching as a normal user). rpmdrake opens, and the breastle says Software Packages Installation, but the Install button at the bottom is disabled. Now choose the drop down which says 'all packages, by group', and choose the 4th item 'all packages, by medium repository' It will show your repositories. Now click on 'main' and see if you don't start getting dependency dialogs. I just did it again, and got about ten.
Well, the runs anyway.

Sun's Unix OS, for 386 architecture. Supposedly it's a very good OS. But the install is difficult. First install attempt hung for 5 minutes after selecting the locale language, and I shut it down. Second went further, started loading service descriptios - hung on 4th of 111. Shut it down after 5 minutes. Third attempt went further, then hung on some other silly error. My hardware is standard Intel mobo, PATA drive, low-end ATI video card, DVD-ROM, Samsung CRT. I think it recognized all the hardware OK. It took over an hour just to get through those attempts, and I gave up.
