I am really new to Fink and even to Unix. My machine is a G5 running MacOS 10.3.3. I am the only user and also the administrator of the system. I am trying to install KDE - base system (kdebase 3.1.4-11) and other related packages through Fink Commander v 0.5.3. Actually, I still don�t know what I should really install from KDE packages in order to run Linux-based software. In my trial using Fink Commander 'Install from Binary' menu option, I received such a long operation report telling me, at last, that I could not install KDE base because I had X11. Yes, I do have - X11 1.0 - XFree86 4.3.0. What steps should I follow to complete, resume or reinitiate this process? The complete report follows below.
Thanks a lot to everyone,
