I have installed Fedora Core 5 on an extra harddrive. What I want to do at this time is to install a player that will play MP3's and internet audio and video streaming. I have been trying to learn linux for a couple of years and have learned a lot but I never have learned the basics(commands,where things go, and such). There is no place around here to learn linux.I have a stack of books 3ft high but none that I can find starts from the basics. All of them assume that you have a working knowledge of linux. I have been looking for someone who lived close enough to help me on occaision. I was in Raleigh for a class and went by Redhat on Friday. That was a waste of time. They said that I couldnt talk to anyone unless I had an appointment. That seems to be a bad way to do business. If people cant learn linux then how do they expect to get customers? The people on Trilug and Uclug have helped me tremendously and for that I thank everyone. I know a Newbie can be a pain but we and I dont have anyplace else to learn. Besides,I hate MS with a passion!


Thank You,
WA Brown

Which mpg123 tarball did you pull? Can you post a link to it so we can make a step by step for you?

I need a little help. I cannot get a tar.gz to install. I have fought this
and its whipped me. Can someone help?

I can unzip it and unpack the tarball but thats as far as I can go. I cannot get it to install. I have tried "make" and it says there is nothing to do. I have never really understood how to do this. Couls someone give me a step by
step instructions? I am trying to install mpg123 on Fedora Core5.
