<html> <head> <style></style></head> <body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'> Hi: I am a total newbie to almost everything Linux, having spent the last 11 years in Windows XP. I have Fedora 18, which, as you may know, is now at EOL and so there's probably no new updates. However, Software Install does show a lot of downloadable stuff in its various categories. But here's where it's functionality seems in question. For example, in Games, I highlighted this one game package that Iwanted to delete called "Greyhounds..." by clicking the little box next to it to get the check mark. Then I clicked on Remove Package. Then I clicked Apply Changes. Then I clicked Exit. But when I went back to Software Install to verify the deletion, "Greyhounds..." was still listed. Why is this? And what does the blue + over the box mean? Please advise, but know that I can't do know how to read or write any coded expressions. All I know is how to operate a GUI with mouse clicks. I realize this is blasphemy in the GNU community, but I wish that Linux variants like Fedora with Gnome desktop were more GUI and less Thanks Greg </div></body> </html>
