some questions about fedora


Recommended Posts

ok, I'd like to ask a few question about the tools and other applications that can be found on mandriva..and other..

.

1. What is the equivalent of diskdrake on FC?

.

2. If Mandriva has supermount, what is it on FC? 4 and 5

.

3. Where can I find a ClanBomber arcade game for fedora4? I installed kdegamed but its not there.. (I using kde 3.5 update to fc4).. trie installing from source but got some problem, so maybe I can get an rpm package of it

.

4. Any Idea how can I install the package Kinternet to fedora similar to that of OpenSuse?

.

5. tryin to cutomize the kernel but when doin a make command this is what I get...see below:

gcc: Internal error: Segmentation fault (program cc1)

any idea about it?

 

.

.

thanks in advance, btw, I started to like it...using it straight for 3 days now :P dualboot of course with mandriva

A few things I know:

1. You can use cfdisk and qtparted instead.

2. On FC5 its the same as in any "bleeding edge" distro: hal+pmount without sftab entries and mods.

4. Dunno about kinternet, but you can use xisp which is much better a gui dialer.

 

Segfaults from gcc are a very bad start, BTW... but you can hope its caused due to some typo or bad setting you passed in "make xconfig".

More information:

3. Add the livna and freshrpms repositories to your yum.conf (Visit their sites, they will give you a copy&paste command to run from cli for activating them), the

yum install clanbomber

The kde games package only has native kde games afaik. Same goes for the gnome-games package (only gnome games).

 

5. Read this guide http://forum.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=29434

. I already have qparted, but I think its like a gui of fdisk, or clone of partitionmagik, it does not perform similar to diskdrake, the goodthing about disk drake is that you can mount a certain partition with a chance to put some advance options, and automatically write the changes on fstab...

.Kinternet is the package that I think can be found on Suse only, but since its under gpl, I think It could be put into FC, but it has a lot of dependency, particularly to Yast and smppd, which I think I encountered also only in Suse, because this tool allows me to connect to my dial-in server, (centos) from home which I am using right now ( OpenSuse10) but when using kppd, it wont connect, ( or maybe I'm just tired of searching what is the real problem), so I'm just guessing that someone has use the tool on FC, but.. its a tool for dial-up so, might be that only a few users here used dial-up this time.

@arctic

I already added those you mentioned, found it on fedoraproject.org, but I have'nt able to install it, maybe there is a change in name....
