3d desktop - genommen - 2005-05-10
I am trying to get 3d Desktop running on Fedora Core 3. I keep running into dependency issues with rpms. They say the needed files like XFree86-libs aren't there but if I try to install them i can't because it says they are there. Someone please help me. I want to get this working.

it is a pager that runs seemlessly with kde and allows you to change virtual desktops in a "3d" environment instead of just using the pager on the taskbar. For more info check the sourceforge site 3d desktop

if you are installing from source.. its probably the -devel rpms that arent installed. as with most package systems the header files and development libs are left out of the main packages.
look for package-version-devel.rpm or -dev. these contains the 'extras' to allow you to compile from source.

Any ideas of where I can find them? I can't find them. And will installing XFree86 affect anything I already have running such as a different X windows server?

just so that you understand: xorg was made from a branch from xfree86 (due to some license alterations). when a lot of stuff talks about xfree86 it can (unfortunately) relate to either xorg or xfree86.
you will have xorg installed.. as anyweb said. so what you will need is something like:
xorg-x11-devel-6.8.1.fc3.rpm
if you have apt installed, you should be able to:
Code:
apt-get install xorg-x11-develnot sure what the similar yum line would be but taking a guess
Code:
yum install xorg-x11-devel3d desktop - genommen - 2005-05-13

According to apt I already have the newest version of xorg-x11-devel

Code:
apt-cache search xorg | grep develhopefully that will give you a suggestion?
