Mageia forum

Hi, my name is Can Masagi and I am a Fedora user... I am interested on Mageia and want to try it on VirtualBox 4.0.8. When I want to install VirtualBox Guest Addition, It needs Mageia to have kernel-devel and kernel-headers package. So.. where can I find kernel-devel-dekstop in order to have Mageia to install VirtualBox Guest Additions? Since I could not find it in Mageia's Software Management

Is there any command similar to yum, apt-get, or zyper to install package via Mageia Repository? So I can easily install softeare package using terminal. And Where is Mageia Repository located?

Thank you very much.

To install the devel kernel

Code: Select all

urpmi kernel-desktop-devel-latest

The repositories:

Mageia documentation is a work in process, but the Mandriva instructions give the general idea of how to use the package management tools:
