You need certain other software for your fedora.I have listed out some basic and how to install them.
Before installing you should upgrade the repository
package with Third Party Repositories
# rpm -Uhv http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-7.rpm
Use yum with root as user in your command line. Yum can automatically download
and install a program and all of its dependencies.
1.Nvidia Driver
# yum install kmod-nvidia
2.Macromedia Flash/Shockwave plugin
download first rpm given below
http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-release/adobe-release-i386-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
then install using:
# rpm -ihv adobe-release-i386-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
3.Java J2RE and Mozilla plug-in
download first Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 2 (or newer version):
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
# yum -y install compat-libstdc++-33
# sh ./jre-6u2-linux-i586-rpm.bin
Mozilla plug-in
# ln -s /usr/java/jre1.6.0_02/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
4.Microsoft Truetype Fonts
download first RPM from this link:
http://www.mjmwired.net/resources/files/msttcorefonts-2.0-1.noarch.rpm
# rpm -ivh msttcorefonts-2.0-1.noarch.rpm
5.Adobe Acrobat
download first RPM from this link:
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2_allversions.html
rpm -ivh AdobeReader_enu-7.0.9-1.i386.rpm
There is a problem with v7.0.9 (and v7.0.8) that will prevents Acrobat from working
properly.To fix, edit as root:
gedit /usr/local/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/bin/acroread
make following changes:
Line ~418:
From:
echo $mfile| sed 's/libgtk-x11-\([0-9]*\).0.so.0.\([0-9]\)00.\([0-9]*\)\|\(.*\)/\1\2\3/g'
To:
echo $mfile| sed 's/libgtk-x11-\([0-9]*\).0.so.0.\([0-9]*\)00.\([0-9]*\)\|\(.*\)/\1\2\3/g'
Line ~643:
From:
MIN_GTK_VERSION="240"
To:
MIN_GTK_VERSION="2040"
6.Wine
# yum install wine
7.Multimedia
