RE: I cannot install Firestarter

["Chapman, Justin T" <JtChapma () bhi-erc com>]

Actually, if you sign up for RedHat's RHN service, then you can use the
up2date command to install gnome-core and all of it's dependencies at once.
To sign up for RHN, run:

rhn_register

And then to install gnome-core:

up2date -i gnome-core

To install every package on the system (resolving dependencies, can be
cron'ed):

up2date -uf

More information on the Red Hat Network (and up2date) can be found at:

http://rhn.redhat.com

This really isn't the place to get in to a Debian/Red Hat debate, but
comparing rpm to apt is an apples to oranges kind of thing.  Rpm is the
format of the packages themselves (as .deb's are in Debian).  Up2date is the
package management tool Red Hat uses (as apt is in Debian).  Just like
rpm's, deb files by themselves don't resolve any dependencies, you need apt
to do that.

welcome to RPM hell. I would install debian - the package management 
debian uses (apt) is more reliable than rpm...

Ok, you can find the gnome_core RPM you probably need to install (at 
least - if there are no other unresolved dependencies and your 
architecture is i386) at
http://ftp.linux.org.uk/mirrors/ftp.gnome.org/archive/stable/releases/gnome-
1.0/redhat/i386/Base/gnome-core-1.0.4-13rh.i386.rpm
