Installing OpenOffice in Linux 27 weeks 6 days ago

Dear All,

Here is my redhat uname -a and cat /etc/redhat-release output

Linux hpclnpm.com 2.6.18-128.el5 #1 SMP Wed Dec 17 11:42:39 EST 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

2.cat /etc/redhat-release

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3 (Tikanga)

After running all the .rpm's for OpenOffice it does not work at all.

Can anyone guide me for the above stated problem.

Thanks and Regards M

I was checking for the Redhat release so this time I used three different comamnds. Two commands gave the same result but the third command gave different result. Which one is true.

I have registered with redhat but unable to get the iso files for redhat 6 or later.

As far as my understanding goes, Redhat desktop edition is free and they charge you for support( correct me if i m wrong).

Which one is best for learning purpose? Is a choice of redhat 6 good or shall i stick with redhat 5?

What is the best way to get the flavor of linux installed on any server? For example if the server is RedHat or CentOS, I can simply do:

cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 6.3 (Final)

Where do all the other major distributions store their details file? Thanks.

Yes! Sigh! :doh:

Release will be on May 29 now.

Hi

In opensuse we have this nice version control variable I use much when designing rpm spec files:

Code: rpm --showrc | grep suse_version %if 0%{?suse_version} > 0 && 0%{?suse_version} < 1700 -14: suse_version      1140 But I do not find anything close to this in rhel/centos The only way I've found is to sed /etc/redhat-release

Like this:

Code: cat /
