Avasti on 64 bit Fedora Core 5

I am running Fedora Core 5 program. This is my home computer. My Fedora Core 5 is the 64bit program.
I downloaded the avasti antivirus program. It was ‘rpm’ file.
Does the following mean installation was successful. I am not sure. Please help me.
[root@c83-250-99-43 Desktop]# rpm -Uvh avast4workstation-1.0.7-1.i586.rpm
Preparing… ########################################### [100%]
1:avast4workstation ########################################### [100%]
[root@c83-250-99-43 Desktop]#

Installation seems to be succesful. Now,. it’s time to run the “avastgui” script. Some 64-bit idstributions lack the backward ABI compatibility, and for these (RHEL 4 AS etc.) a patch is available on our pages.

Thanks zllog

I just type ‘avastgui’. It started working. It seems I have to type the license, key you emailed to me, every time I run the program. Is it the case?
Is this purely a command line program? You don’t have a graphical version for home users, do you?

What? The GUI (window, graphic mode…)?

No… did you install as root?

For sure not… the GUI (front-end) is opened by the command avastgui.

Thanks Tech for taking time to reply me.

Yes, I installed as a root user. So if I go to the command line and write ’ avastgui’ , the program starts. It asks the key you sent to me.

This means every time I want to start the program, I must write the key.
Is it the way this program works?
I asked about a graphical version. It is like your wordprocessor program.
Do you have a graphical version of this program?

For sure, not…

I have an old screenshot of it…

Thanks Tech
Now it started working properly. I don’t have to write the key any longer.
Are you Spanish speaking?

No. I’ve speak Portuguese.
Well, I speak Spanish too ;D

I know some Spanish. Your screen shot is not real Spanish. So it is Portuguese.

avast for Linux is not on Spanish (yet), as far I know.
That is a Portuguese (Brazilian) interface that I’m proud to be the translator :slight_smile:
