I know Ximian does not support Fedora Core 1 but I was _able_ to install 
it from the Ximian website a few weeks ago.
I'm using the same CD's I used a few weeks ago. I  have Evolution 
running from the RPM off the CD now.
It's just odd that it would work several times a few weeks ago and not 
at all now.  Ximian/Novell must have decided
to limit what distributions they will let it be installed on to limit 
the support path.

Is there any way to fool Fedora in to thinking it's Red Hat 9?  anyone?

Sam.
