First thank you to everyone here...I am new in this Ubuntu. Firstly i have two requirements: a. I need git to do linux kernel development. b. I need flash for my firefox. So I downloaded the rpm file. So in Fedora Core, normally I will do "yum install xxx.rpm" where xxx.rpm is the downloaded flash rpm file from adobe, and yum automatically will do a recursive download of all dependent packages and install it at the same time. "rpm" cannot do that. Sorry for all these...for flash I think I found the answer in: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy and for the kernel I found it here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelGitGuide Ok...problem solved....thank you for the guide on git-core everyone ...etc!!!!! -- Regards, Peter Teoh -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
