[Comm-en] GNOME 2.2

[Comm-en] GNOME 2.2

[vadim]

Hi!
It seems that ALT Linux Junior supports GNOME 2.2
I have a few machines running ALTLJ2, not all of them having Internet 
connection available.

How can I upgrade GNOME on them? 
Maybe there is some RPM I can download and install?
Or I need to downoad a bunch of separate RPMs for it?

There are two major ways of doing it:
1. Connect to Sysiphus repository and mirror it on your Intranet;
2. Buy CDs of Sisyphus - for example, on linuxshop.ru.

BTW, why do you use this mailing list, not russian one?
There are other ALTLinux mailing lists, have a look at the altlinux.ru . ;-)

People commonly use apt-get to obtain packages from Sisyphus.
If you can't use Internet connection, you can buy Junior2.2 (be
soon) and get any packages from it, by using apt-cdrom and
apt-get.

Sounds good! Any idea when it can occur?

I had some troubles installing Opera 6 on ALTLJ2.
Is it a real problem, mybrains.o or ruki.sys
Will 2.2 run any 6.x Opera from rpm w/o any extra hacking?

Same applies for Radeon 9x00 drivers. 
I was unable to unpack kernel-sources from the disk, when trying to recompile them ...

Plus: I had written some (alas, sometimes not very polite) words about LJ2 installation 
process on www.nomicrosoft.ru forum. Is anyone interested in the link?
