Re: Installing Octave

[Ana Mónica Lourenço]

Hi,
Thanks for your e-mails. I am really new in this things and i need your help. I am a little bit confused.

I just have access to the computer by the command line using the command ssh.
The version of the computer is:


openSUSE 11.1 (x86_64)
VERSION = 11.1

I can download the packages and then I can copy the files to the computer using the command line. 
Where can I download the packages and what are the commands that i have to use to install them?

I really appreciate your help
Monica

You will need of course some internet access on some machine to download the
rpms you need, octave has a lot of dependencies. Without knowing which
packages are already installed on your machine it is difficult to say which you
have to download.

If you have a fast internet access somewhere you can download the whole
science repository and burn it to a DVD which you can then use on your machine
which has no internet access.
You can simply use the rpm command for that then.
