fuzzylizard Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 This site was listed in a post about gaim and some new rpm's. However, it has a ton of rpm's listed on it. Just wondering whose site it is and if the rpm's on it are any good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Scrimpshire Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 (edited) All I get when I go to that site is the default Apache index page, so, um, dunno. But judging from the name of the site, I would guess it is this user's: http://www.MandrakeUsers.org/index.php?showuser=2484 Edited November 5, 2003 by Steve Scrimpshire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzylizard Posted November 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 Here is the actual URL to all the files. http://mircea.interplus.ro/ftp/ultraupdates/ There is an hdlist.cz and the instructions for setting the directory up in urpmi. The reason that I ask is that there are rpm's for KDE 3.1.4 there. Mandrake 9.2 only came with 3.1.3 and I would like to upgrade. I would just like someone to vouch for the files -- i.e. they installed them with no errors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paleo Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 (edited) If you want kde3.1.4, I would get the ones from texstar. Go to PcLinuxOnline.com for the link or use easy urpmi for configuring urpmi for texstar. Edit Oops. sorry. Texstar's rpms are for 9.1 and not 9.2 Edited November 5, 2003 by paleo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmpatrick Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 I have no clue who they are but I poked around the site a bit which seems to include some softcore porn of all things and a picture of these guys: http://mircea.interplus.ro/ftp/100HP215/IM000925.JPG Don't know if I'd trust them for rpms :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they have a pron directory or that there are pictures of them? Neither reason makes any sense to me as a good reason for not trusting them. A better one would be not knowing who they are so you'd be installing .rpms from an unknown source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure that was fuzzy's logic initially Edited November 6, 2003 by Vdubjunkie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
