How to install Gnome into centos
Posted: 2012/03/26 15:21:47
Hello! I have installed centos with "minimal" option for keeping the system smallest as possible.
But I am very unfamilared with how to install/remove packages from command line for centos/rhel/fedora/suse. I haven't used till now a .rpm distro.
Now, how can I install gnome?
There are different packages for gnome, as gnome-meta or gnome-lite?
The package of gnome 3 is ready / exist for centos 6?
[root@centos /]# uname -a
Linux centos 2.6.32-220.7.1.el6.i686 #1 SMP Tue Mar 6 21:21:22 GMT 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[root@centos /]#
:hammer:
If I would be in ubuntu I would have these scenarios:
[code]sudo apt-get install gnome-shell[/code]
or
[code]sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop[/code]
In freeBSD I would search the package on freshports.org
or trought ports
[code]cd /usr/ports/x11/gnome2/ && make install clean[/code][code]pkg_add -r gnome2[/code]
Or gnome lite
[code]cd /usr/ports/x11/gnome2-lite/ && make install clean[/code]
[code]pkg_add -r gnome2-lite[/code]
