I am at my wits end I swear it.  Forget all the other problems I am having
with linux.  I bought a copy of maximum linux and it came with a CD which
had some nice software I would like to install.  The problem is I have no
clue how to install them, if I just start uncompressing them it doesn't work
( should know I tried and now I have wasted space but thats another story)
and there are no automated installation executables or anything like that
and I don't even know how to find an executable.  In the micro$oft garbage
there is .com, .bat, and .exe extensions identifying programs as
executables.  I think two things that would make linux just excellent is
automated installation procedures for programs, and executables that have a
specific extension.  I realize the latter is most likely not going to happen
as alot of stuff would have to be done to make this so.  However the former
can be done, and needs to be done for those who are not admins and don't
know their way around linux(people such as me).  I am a hardware and
internet tech but I have no experience with linux.  All my experience is
with dos, win3.x and win9x.  With all the new M$ crap coming out such as me
and 2000 I know this stuff is garbage and have decided it is time to go to
linux.  Although I am still using 98se and will be along side of linux for
awhile.  I am running peanut linux version 8.2 with kernel version 2.2.18
and KDE(which I cannot stand) Speaking of which I cannot figure out how to
get xfce installed off the maximum linux CD and every suggestion that I have
tried including the stuff that was step by step has been no help whatsoever.
Any help anyone could give me would be of great help.
