I'm having trouble installing anything on my system. I am a complete n00b to Linux, I just switched from crappy Vista two days after I got a new desktop :P First I would like to get Java and Flash installed on Firefox but I keep getting a dependency error when trying to install. I'm running Bluewhite64 and really like it so far [img]<___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_ph34r.png[/img]
This is what I get when I try to install Java, I have no idea why???
rpm -U --replacepkgs '///usr/java/jre-6u2-linux-amd64.rpm';echo RESULT=$?
