Hi everyone, I hope you can help me with this silly problem. I'm working on a RHE 3 machine and I am trying to install yum so I can yum down firefox. Well, when I try to install yum (via rpm) there are too many dependencies/conflicts and the install fails. I finally gave up and downloaded a firefox package and I can't install that either. I get this message: (firefox-bin:1120): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: I am getting so frustrated because these were such simple tasks and I am just spinning my wheels. Why is it so hard to install these two programs. Why doesn't the rpm that I download already have the libs and python that is needed. I can't even google the problem because I always end up where I downloaded the program in the first place. Any help would be dearly appreciated. And, thanks in advance. Paula -- Paula J.
