You've been given several answers to help you along, and given that you're a Linux user I'm hoping you should be accustomed to doing things from the command line. In brief, download 'alien' using OpenSUSE's package management system. If it's not provided by OpenSUSE, then please download it from the Internet using a searchtool like Google. Once you have alien, you can run this:
Code:
sudo alien -r kobo-desktop.deb
It should create a .rpm from the .deb file. Don't forget to download the .deb file if you haven't. Now you can install it using whatever tool installs .rpms on OpenSUSE. You may need to resolve some dependency issues around libzip or if you're running a 64-bit version of OpenSUSE. |
Hi George. I apologize for being cross...It's just frustrating you know?...I know you all work hardSometimes linux tends to be touchy between distros even though it may be an rpm file or deb...I did try the suggestions but thye just didn't seem to be working for me...I did look at the alien thing...it didnt say it made rpm's...it said it made packages from rpm's? So i didn't try it...But I've been tinkering with it all this time and i think i'm having some success...
But since i have you on here...What do i do if the touch is telling me that i'm using the wrong network login and i know i am not? :-)
Again i do apologize for being cross...Just venting...I was actually about to delete this post but then yu had already replied...So yeah...Sorry everyne
