Downloading LaCie Lightscribe Labeler .rpm file(solved)
Posted: Sun Jun 14, 2009 6:24 pm
I've been trying to download the file so I can use the labels Zwopper created ( http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=27187 ) on my Mint disks. This is the first time I've tried to use .rpm files. I got Alien from Synaptic, read the man pages and what other docs I could find. I feel confident that I can use Alien to transform the .rpm file to a .deb file.
My problem is this (and it may be the normal action. I have never downloaded a .rpm file before). Is it normal for the downloader to open Gnome mplayer and put the file into the mplayer cache? If this is normal, how do I retrieve the file so I can run it through Alien and install it? If it is not normal how do I correct things?
I'm no longer a true newbie in Mint but in this instance I feel like the newest of the new. Any help will be deeply appreciated. I really want to be able to use Zwopper's labels on the CDs I will be burning for friends.
