chris z Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 install all of them & any dependencies they might require. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikejr Posted March 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Those files require CD4 - there were only three cd ISO images to download for Mandrake... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris z Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 cd4???!!!! which version of mdk are you using? 10.0? if so, & you don't have cd4, you can go HERE & HERE to get what you need & to search for any other rpm's you might need. or, dload cd4. :P Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdion81 Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 I ran into the same message about dependencies, I just installed all of them with urpmi after I removed the cd media from the urpmi database gcc2.96-2.96-0.83mdk gcc2.96-c++-2.96-0.83mdk gcc2.96-cpp-2.96-0.83mdk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikejr Posted March 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 (edited) ..and following the examplle from the java above I get the following: [root@dhcp-313-89 mikejr]# chmod a+x gcc2.96-2.96-0.83mdk.i586.rpm[root@dhcp-313-89 mikejr]# rpm -iv gcc2.96-2.96-0.83mdk.i586.rpm warning: gcc2.96-2.96-0.83mdk.i586.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 70771ff3 error: Failed dependencies: gcc2.96-cpp = 2.96-0.83mdk is needed by gcc2.96-2.96-0.83mdk [root@dhcp-313-89 mikejr]# Obviously there dependencies, how to I go about finding them? All of the files at the rpm finder have identical names... I'm trying very hard to hold back my comments about linux right now, as I'm sure this will all pay off in the end When I attempt to install using the GUI, it seems to work smoothly until I get a message saying that it has a bad signature? I have not proceeded past this - is it common? The following packages have bad signatures:/home/mikejr/gcc2.96-2.96-0.83mdk.i586.rpm: Invalid signature ((SHA1) DSA sha1 md5 (GPG) (MISSING KEY) GPG#70771ff3 NOT OK) Edited March 13, 2004 by mikejr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris z Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 dependency hell...........ah, yes........ ok, do this.......... go here to Easy URPMI & set yourself up with some external rpm sources. follow the instructions there. it tells you how to do it. get yourself (at least) a contrib source, but it wouldn't hurt to put in a main source & external source. just be careful with cooker sources. they can (& usually do) contain a lot of unstable apps. after you set up sources, go to mcc->install software & do a search for the packages you're looking for. chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris z Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 just ignore the bad signature message. the packages will install fine without the GPG keys. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikejr Posted March 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Well, installed it. Try to open firefox: [mikejr@dhcp-313-89 firefox]$ ./firefoxLoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /home/mikejr/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so [libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory] LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/share/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so [libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory] Still no Flash.

chris z Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 ok, i don't use Firefox (Mozilla1.6 here, but mostly Opera). so, without knowing the inner workings of Firefox, i can't offer anymore advice other than pointing you HERE if you haven't looked there already. it's a Firefox page with instructions on how to install various plugins (flash, java, etc.). maybe that'll help ya out. :unsure: Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred_the_fish Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 friad I is stumped.. I did a fresh install of my system on wednesday, and got firefox working in exactly the way I told you. Firefox will work if you take out libflashplayer.so from the plugins dir, but then you won't have working flash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikejr Posted March 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Fire fox works fine - I just get that error when trying to run it from the cl. There is no Flash though. I installed Opera, and the flash plu - still no flash... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLA21 Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 (edited) I had all the above problems with Flash+Firefox 0.8+. I just did: ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5.0.5 /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 as root and now flash is working properly! Hope that helps, Cheers! :) Edited March 13, 2004 by VILLA21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikejr Posted March 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Well that worked like a charm! Flash now works in Firefox, mozilla, and opera :) What exactly did that command do, and how did you know to issue it? Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donparr Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 VILLA21 ~ Thank You! That worked for me as well :D ! I had been following this fred trying to get flash to work with FIrefox, nothing got it to go until your post. Don't know exactly what it did but that's what fixed it... again, thanks! Don...
