All,

I put Fedora 10 on my main desktop which is a P4 2.26 with 512Meg of Ram.  I
installed all the development packages for KDE off the install DVD, and then
updated the whole works after it installed (599 Megs of updates!)

I installed clucene-core-devel-0.9.21-1.fc10.i386

I downloaded sword-1.5.11 from crosswire  and installed it with ./configure
--enable-shared --without-clucene

I then downloaded bibletime-1.7beta3 and built using  build-debug.sh, it
bailed out saying it could no build using libpcre.so.
I installed the pcre_dev package and bibletime built fine.  However, when I
started bibletime, it complained about not finding sword-1.5.11.so.
I added the file libsword.conf which contained the path to my sword
libraries '/usr/local/lib' and ldconfiged and bibletime started.

I had intentionally not installed any modules so I chose the Aleppo, DBD,
ERen-id, ERid-en, Easton, JFB, KJV, NetFree, Pilgrim, RWP, Strong Greek,
Strong Hebrew, TR, WHNU, and the WLC modules and started the download. While
they were downloading, I played a game and messed with OpenOffice 3.0 trying
to figure out how to get an Indonesian dictionary in it.

The modules all loaded fine and I then opened the following modules in this
order: KJV, WHNU, Aleppo, WLC, JFB, RWP, NetFree, Pilgrim, Easton, DBD.
After opening each module, I did a search (all modules indexed fine)
checking "all words" and "some words" using "grace of God" "minister" and
then "and a."  No errors.  I left each module on the desktop as I went
through the following module.  In the end I tried the different ways to
arrange the modules on the desktop.  No crashes.

Good stuff.  Tom Crawford
