In reply to Anton's 'ps', I'm a Linux newbie, only had Mandrake installed for just under 3 weeks. However, I'm a programmer in Real Life(tm), so you don't have to go easy on me :) . I won't have any problems understanding *what* needs to be done, but I may need a little hand-holding so I know exactly *how* to do something the first time.
Thanks once again guys,
Dave

Hi there,
I'm having some fun (not) trying to install a program. Is anyone able to help ?
It's a music notation/MIDI composer called RoseGarden. I'm using Mandrake 9.1.
I've downloaded the following RPM's:
rosegarden-4-arts-0.9.1-2mdk.i586.rpm
librosegarden0-4-arts-0.9.1-2mdk.i586.rpm
I right-click on 'rosegarden-4-arts-0.9.1-2mdk.i586.rpm' and select 'Software Installer'.
I then get this message:
***
To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed (6 MB):
libjack0-0.50.0-3mdk.i586
rosegarden-4-arts-0.9.1-2mdk.i586
Is this OK?
***
I click on OK, and a few seconds later get this message:
***
Conflicts were detected:
librosegarden0-4-arts = 0.9.1 is needed by rosegarden-4-arts-0.9.1-2mdk
libRosegardenSequencer.so.0 is needed by rosegarden-4-arts-0.9.1-2mdk
Install aborted
***
I'm stuck at this point. I assume ' librosegarden0-4-arts' is the RPM I downloaded (above). I can't find ' libRosegardenSequencer.so.0' anywhere. I've Googled hi and lo, and found nothing helpful.
I've tried installing 'librosegarden0-4-arts' first, but it complains that it needs 'rosegarden0-4-arts', so I'm going round in circles...
Any advice/ideas gratefully received !
Thanks
Dave
