I guess it can be a bit hard knowing exactly WHAT the problem is.  It
reminds me of a book on meditation I read, which said 'when meditating,
try to clear your mind and think of nothing'.  How the hell do you do
THAT?  Once you KNOW how to clear your mind and think of nothing, you
understand what they are trying to say, but then you don't need the book
any more lol.

Ok, I installed Linux Mandrake 7.?2? (I'm pretty sure) on Sunday.  Since
then NO programs I have tried to install go in.  These are specifically:

Xchat (dependencies problems)
xIrc (dependencies problems), and
Licq (dependencies problems - which is REALLY odd, as it comes with
Mandrake)

What am I doing?

I'm going in as root, typing in rpm -Uvh <program>

Ok, if you need any further hints, I'll have to ask you to be specific
in what I need to explain to you, because that's basically all I know.

Thanks for all the help.
