[Sussex] Installing programs in Linux

[Desmond Armstrong]

I am not sure if you come to our meetings, but if you have opportunity any
of us will show the techniques of installing and managing the installed
programs.

The nearest you get to the method of windows (simply double clicking a .exe
file is double clicking a .rpm and you will then get pop-up window asking
for root privilidge authorization)

All the distros have a control panel of some sort which makes the process of
adding (or removing) software really very easy. I am now quite familiar with
Mandriva and can certainly show how easy it is.
