[Sussex] Xfce

[Ed Scull]

Hello all!

I am trying to install Xfce4 on my old laptop, which came with October's 
Linux Format.  I currently have RH8 running on it at command line only.  
I have unpacked the many RH8 RPMs off the LF disk.  As there is not much 
in the way of a read-me file, I am not sure which RPMs to install, so I 
thought I would install all of them!  When working through the list of 
RPMs, I came across one that stated it needed GCC.  When I tried to 
install the GCC RPMs off the RH8 discs they state that they need 
glibc-devel.  When I tried to install that it states it needs 
kernel-headers.2.2.1.  I can't find 'kernel-headers' on the RH8 discs!  
What am I doing wrong?!  What is/are 'kernel-headers'?

Apologies for the newbie question.  Hopefully the above makes sense?!

Ed :-)
