I decided to give Fedora a shot for a bit, though after getting it all up and running I nearly went back to the backup of my Debian Stable install due to Fedora's version of XMMS not including mp3 support. (Due to licensing/patent issues or something.) Alright, deep breath. XMMS.org has RPMs for xmms. Download, install...needs alib-blah, or wast it asound-blah...damn I miss apt. Install apt, check sources.lost, add freshrpms.net. apt-get install alsa-lib. Ah, that's better. rpm -U xmms*.rpm. Hello raidioparadise.com, Fedora can stick around for another week or so. So now that I'm this far, anyone have any other tips or things I should know? This is the first time I installed a RPM based distro without being fustrated enough by it to reinstall Debian the next day. Still getting used to the RedHat way of doing things with Run Levels and using services instead of /etc/init.d/. Well, back to stumbling blindly about my fresh new install... Andrew S.
