First thank you to everyone here...I am new in this Ubuntu. Firstly
i have two requirements:
a. I need git to do linux kernel development.
b. I need flash for my firefox. So I downloaded the rpm file.
So in Fedora Core, normally I will do "yum install xxx.rpm" where
xxx.rpm is the downloaded flash rpm file from adobe, and yum
automatically will do a recursive download of all dependent packages
and install it at the same time. "rpm" cannot do that.
Sorry for all these...for flash I think I found the answer in:
http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy
and for the kernel I found it here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelGitGuide
Ok...problem solved....thank you for the guide on git-core everyone ...etc!!!!!
