Re: How to install packages in Mandriva?
You can install packages in Mandriva Linux using 'Rpmdrake'. In the search field
type' xmms' & click on the search button. When the search results are displayed , select 'XMMS' & click on 'Install' button. This will install XMMS in Mandriva Linux 2006. If you are new to Linux world , check this link for more details: http://doc.mandrivalinux.com/Mandrak...t-install.html You can also download XMMS from here: http://www.xmms.org/download.php Choose the 'RPM' format, since Mandriva Linux uses 'RPM' format. |
