Newbie Question: Setup on RH7 for development

[Roland Krause]

Giorgi,
you dont need any textbooks, there isnt that much to report either. 
Once KDevelop is running and you have all the tools in place it's just
like the Linux version. 
This assumes that you got it all working though. 

One drawback, I am still havin problems with the debugger. But John is
working with me to solve that problem. 

Best regards, 
Roland
