Subject: Re: Newb question
I tried what you guys said and I'm facing something
strange:

If I type rpm -ql Cedega...RPM I get "that package is
not installed"
But if I try rpm -i Cedega...RPM it says "that package
is already installed"

I know it definitely IS installed. I tried deleting
it and then reinstalling it with -qlv and whatever
else. It reinstalls but it doesn't list a path or any
files or anything. Why would this happen?
