203373 2003-12-30 21:46:00 Thanks a lot Jen. Help is much appreciated. I'll give it a go later this morning and post the results. Even if it doesn't work, I'm sure to do something, I really want to play TuxRacer! :)

You and Chill have definitely been a great help to me, and if there is ANYTHING, and I stress ANYTHING that you want, just let me know. I have everything you can possibly imagine under the horizon (for Windows), though most is of course illegal. Drop me a line if you ever need anything to: zan.m@ihug.co.nz <---Note to PF1 users, any SPAM will result in me doing some techno karate!! Look out! :P

Cheers, have a brill new year.

203374 2003-12-31 03:54:00 And voila, it works! TuxRacer, what a novelty game. :)

Last thing to do before I give you a short New Years break ;)

Need aMSN to get going... the problem we had was that it simply wouldn't work. When I tried to install, nothing happened...

203375 2003-12-31 04:21:00 Did you try:
wish /usr/local/msn/amsn

Congrats on the Drivers :-)

Really!?! <falls off chair in dead faint>
Well done! :D Have to confess I wasn't holding out too much hope on the disabling the AGP option bit.

That should get you sorted for a wee while, but remember to look out for updates on your situation so that you can get it fixed properly (and to remove the Option "NvAgp" "0") when you do.

I see Chill is sorting out your aMSN problem, but did you remember to make yourself a user account somewhere along the line? :)

You certainly don't give up easily when it comes to dealing with problems :D

Cheers
Jen

I found that I had created a Guest account . . .

I've been on Windows for too long! ;)

See:

You'll need to install tcl/tk packages (tcl & tk)
Run:
redhat-config-packages
Try and locate it, I think it may be under the devel tools, but I may be wrong...

203379 2003-12-31 08:21:00 I found tk, couldn't find tcl... installed tk. Jaguar (4442)
203380 2003-12-31 08:51:00 Did it work when you ran:
wish /usr/share/msn/amsn
then??

203381 2003-12-31 20:21:00 Well, it won't install .

I then went browsing in the CD, found some tcl and one tk rpm, of course, I can't run them . It said something about unable to execute binary . . . didn't quite catch it . Anyway, should I burn another copy of the CD and try again? I can't seem to install anything .

203382 2003-12-31 21:04:00 When you run:
redhat-config-packages
It'll just ask you for your origional install CD's.

If you installed Redhat with it, then surely it'll be a good and working CD.

Ive got a friend with Fedora, I'll send him a txt and ask him what section tcl/tk are under :-)

Keep with it, you're almost there... :-)


Chill.
