satelliteuser083 Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 I could do with a more sophisticated pdf-reader than Xpdf but can't find one on the LE2005 distro; any tips? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 You can get Adobe Reader for Linux nowadays, ghostview is another one. I have Adobe Reader on mine already with default Mandriva 2006 install. Under Office/Publishing. I never installed separate rpm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a question in principle: is it possible to install Mandriva 2006 packages (from the DVD) into LE2005? :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 yes and no ;) sometimes you can safely do this, and not run into any problems, but on occasion doing so -may- bork your system up a bit. it's sort of like russian roulette.
