phate Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 I use fedora core 3 too. You can talk to me on AIM or MSN if you need a hand. I got installing programs sorted now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack_canada Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Well there are several ways, like compiling from source, using YUM, apt4rpm or use .rpm packages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It runs pretty decent on my Celeron 400. Then again, how much RAM and what video card are on your 500 MHz AMD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hachacker5024 Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 does anyone here use Linux Redhat 9.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR_Candyman Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 does anyone here use Linux Redhat 9.0 585619148[/snapback] that's seriously outdated now. I DID use it when it was out (it was actually my preferred distro at the time), but now there's much better (red hat stopped making their personal linux, so red hat 9's a few years old already).
