For Fedora, you'll want to add the rpmfusion repo as it'll have the mp3 stuff and nvidia driver stuff.<br><br>To browse the distro packages, you look for a mirror site and poke through the releases and updates for the releases.<br>
<br><a href="http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora-options">http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora-options</a> has a link to a KDE spin of fedora 15 (New! Today!) "All Download methods" is a link to here:<br>
<a href="http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora-all">http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora-all</a><br><br>which has "see all mirrors" near the bottom. Select a mirror and look at releases and updates. <br><br><br>

A friend requested I install Fedora for her and I am wondering if the<br>
DVD presents an option for KDE.<br>
<a href="http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/15/html/Installation_Guide/s1-pkgselection-x86.html" target="_blank">http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/15/html/Installation_Guide/s1-pkgselection-x86.html</a><br>
shows a Graphical Desktop option, but doesn't indicate if KDE will be an<br>
option. Any suggestions?<br>
<br>
Recently I was browsing Fedora's site trying to see what versions of<br>
software they have. I was hoping to find something like<br>
<a href="http://packages.ubuntu.com" target="_blank">packages.ubuntu.com</a> or <a href="http://packages.debian.org" target="_blank">packages.debian.org</a>. Do they have such a thing?<br>
<br>
And where might I find the nvidia rpm's?<br>
<br>
<br>
I also intend to install XP first and she is on dialup. Can someone<br>
suggest an easy way to get all the XP updates, put them on a CD and<br>
install them?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Chuck<br>
