how can we uniinstall an rpm

1. To remove the already installed rpm, use this command
rpm -e packagename
2. The link for the latest version of msn is
http://amsn.sourceforge.net/
3. yes, you can make ur linux automatically mount ur windows partitions every time u log in. to do this u have to edit ur /etc/fstab file. for example at the end of ur /etc/fstab file u can put the following line and it will auto mount ur C drive every time u log in.
/dev/hda1 /mnt/CDrive vfat defaults 0 0
(thats what i did with myseld and it worked fine).
to do this. just open /etc/fstab file in ur favourite editor, anything like gedit and just put the above given line as the last entry. save, exit and reboot. but before rebooting, u must create a directory named as 'CDrive' in ur /mnt/, cuz thats where its going to mount ur C:\ drive.
Also the above given line works, if u want to mount a FAT partition. If u want to mount ntfs partition, just replace 'vfat' with 'ntfs' in command given above.
that was for C drive only. if you want to mount your D:\ or E:\ drives too. the basic command will be the same, just the numbers of drives will be changed. for example to mount D:\ drive, the command becomes
/dev/hda5 /mnt/DDrive vfat defaults 0 0
to mount drive E:\ the command becomes
/dev/hda6 /mnt/EDrive vfat defaults 0 0
if u want to mount all three of ur windows paritions automatically, just put these three lines at the end of /etc/fstab
/dev/hda1 /mnt/CDrive vfat defaults 0 0
/dev/hda5 /mnt/DDrive vfat defaults 0 0
/dev/hda6 /mnt/EDrive vfat defaults 0 0
===========================
Dont forget to create directories named as 'CDrive, DDrive and EDrive'
in ur /mnt/.
4. For software searches, u may give a look to
www.freshmeat.net
www.sourceforge.net
to find rpms and stuff
www.rpmfind.net
to check the stuff related to kde
www.kde.org
apps.kde.com
thats all i knew about ur problems
Good Day

Testing?What's that? If it compiles, its good, if it boots up it is perfect.

Most of your questions have been answered by outstream.
For those left:
1.The mpg123 plugin for xmms is used to play .mp3 files and not .dat vcd or other video files.XMMS is an audio player...not a video player.
To play .dat and other video formats, use MPLAYER or XINE which are really cool video players.
2.Grub goes off?
What do u mean.Do you mean you are not able to boot linux?
If you have a problem, describe it completely.
TO start redhat linux in rescue mode,
boot from the CD # 1.
Start linux in rescue mode.
Do a chroot /mnt/sysimage and other commands you might need.
3.For your hcf/hsf modem issue, take a look here:

RedHat pre-compiled kernel do not allow mounting/accessing NTFS partitions, re-compile your kernel with NTFS support, search forum for an article about how to re-compile kernel.i tried to mount ntfs but it gives the message ntfs not supported by this kernal.Iam using RH9

Dear Umarfida,
Salam,
Best Regards.
Salam,
Yes, you can mount an NTFS file system on it. It should be noted, however, that write support is experimental/dangerous (though it sounds like you only need read support). It's part of an included kernel module (at least in 2.4.*) and you need only modprobe ntfs and use `mount` to mount it in an arbitrary directory.umarfida wrote:i tried to mount ntfs but it gives the message ntfs not
