Help out a new Linux user? (Redhat 9)

(1/3) > >>

IEisEVIL:
I am not a "newbie" when it comes to computers, but I am new to Linux! I setup a dual boot configuration on my machine (XP Pro/Redhat 9) and I was wondering if I could get some help on a few things:

*How do I add MP3 support to Redhat 9, and can Linux play WMA files?

*I have a FAT32 partition with my music on it, how would I go about mounting it so that I can listen to my music?

*I'd like to install the Real Player plugin, Java 1.4.2 plugin and the Flash/Shockwave plugin for Mozilla 1.5, how would I go about doing this?

*I have an ATI Radeon 9200 (New card) and Redhat 9 does not have drivers for this, so I have to use these horrible standard drivers, is there a better driver I can use for my card so I'm not stuck in 800x600?

Thanks in advance   !

 You only need to install this rpm to be able to play mp3's in Red Hat 8 / 9:

A wild guess: GIMP?
Plugin: http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/faqs/
Mounting FAT32: mount -vfat /dev/hdaX /mnt/hdaX


I'm a Linux noob too so don't trust me too much on this.

No,  http://www.iqauto.com/cgi-bin/3dgen.pl .

I didn't feel like using the GIMP.

Then I copy and pasted it into the KDE paint program, trimmed it to be more like a banner, and saved it as a ".jpg" file.
