Institution: CW Package Version: N-AWIPS/GEMPAK 5.8.3a Operating System: Fedora 3 Hardware Information: AMD Duron 2200, 256mb ram, 20gb drive Inquiry: Hello, For the first time ever I decided it was time to try out Linux on my desktop pc. I`m running a dual boot setup with w98se. Everything is fine, apart from Linux is taking some getting used to!! Anyways, I wanted to installed Linux mainly so I could finally try out Gempak. I`ve been wanting to do so for ages. I`m running a Fedora 3 version of linux. The trouble is, I`m completely lost with installing Gempak. I don`t even know what I should be downloading. Of course if this was a windows environment then I would be fine with it!! I feel dumb for asking this, but the installation guide has left my brain numb!! Man, I really want to get Gempak installed and running too!!
