use apt-get install dc...
or get a *.deb and install that.

Im very new to Linux, and enjoying it so far, Knoppix has sucsueded in puting in most things I need, except for a few things. So I like get DCGUI's RPM file, and I open it and click install and it brings this up, now I took a short look and I don't think Knoppix has a program called alien, so what do I do about this error?
<mnt/hdd1/dclib-0.2.21-1mdk.i586.rpm';echo RESULT=$?
rpm: To install rpm packages on Debian systems, use alien. See README.Debian.
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - No such file or directory (2)
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm
RESULT=1
I didn't see anything about this in the documentation.
use apt-get install dc...
or get a *.deb and install that.
or apt-get install alien, download a alien.deb...
In the shell thing?
knoppix@ttyp1[knoppix]$ apt-get install dc

What does that mean? It does not sound very good! And where do I get a .deb? (Yes I am an uber n00p)
(Sorry for the double post!)
Ah well I seem to be getting closer, when I try to install a .deb in kpackage it says Read-only file system so I looked, and couldnt find anything, so could some one point me to a place where I can learn where I can set the File system to non read only?
Hang on, are you running Knoppix from the CD?
Yes, I don't have it on the drive, I use the live CD.
I hate to keep bumping this thread up, but can anyone help? It says my file system is read only so I cant install my .deb, so how do I change my file system? I looked and cant find it anywhere, and I really would like to get my BT to work.
You have to install knoppix to the HD to install additional software.Originally Posted by Prons
yes hddinstall or making a "custm" cd, are only ways you can get a new program onto knoppix.
the custom part is not an easy task for a beginner.
