Linux Beginner Software Installation Questions
I am completely open to linux, but i am a newbie to it. I hate the microsoft empire and want to get as far away from it as possible. The problem is...i cant find any programs that work with linux. Do I have to compile all the files i want to install? I used linux once, but i was mega confused. I hate microsoft for making me adapt to their stupid OS

Hiya Onizuka, welcome to the forums.
First off, what's the distro of linux you are using?
Secondly, what do you want to install?

Your going to need to be a little more specific.
What programs are you trying to install?
What OS are you using, as in are you using RedHat or Mandrake or SuSe or ......?
