distro == what linux distribution are you running? RedHat? Fedora? SuSE? Debian? Mandrake? etc. The specs of your box aren't useful :) Also, should keep this on-list since I'm not tech support and am not very familiar with most of these linux distributions myself.

Thanks Jeffrey. I am running a CPU Builders box, model 528L, with 256K memory and an AMD XP 2700+ CPU. Though Linux is a very powerful & attractive OS, it is fairly daunting to learn, but I am determined to do so. I really want to know how to use the many features available, starting with the command line software installation and file management capabilities. Any assistance and guidance will be appreciated Jeffrey Stedfast wrote:couple things: - 2.0.3 is the latest - it's probably easier to install prebuilt packages than to build the tar.gz yourself :) which distro are you running? if you are running Fedora or something, I think there's a `yum` command you can give and it will automagically install it for you. Debian has something similar which would go something like `apt-get install evolution` Jeff On Sun, 2004-12-19 at 15:32, Dennis McGee wrote:I am new to Linux. I have downloaded the Evolution 2.0.2 tar.gz compressed file. I have never installed software on a linux system. What steps should be taken to install?
