Uhmmmmmm,

To add the tools from the extra cd's there is a big long line of stuff that 
you have to type in from the command line.  The correct commands 
are on their website in one of the faq's.  I added the games cd. 

It has Kpackage in it altho I'm not sure if there is a menu selection for 
it. I know if you find an rpm and click on it, it will invoke Kpackage. 

To download other software go to the Caldera Site 
http://www.calderasystems.com

once downloaded just click on it to install.

There is a menu item for update software....I couldn't get it to 
work.....needed a password and user name for it.

AFAIK build 44 is the most recent.
