    I would use a better browser and since Linux is really ment for CLI only they are still working on getting everything right using x. I suggest not using rpms and going for source. You learn more and its generally better.

          why dont you just try to find it on a different ftp, some can give you 200kb+. and i suppose you know what your doing with linux but for anyone who doesnt and is just downloading it to say that they dont use windows then you better start learning cause it can be a pain.

            Why did you get redhat linux now????

            You should wait a year. Oracle bought the code for redhat a few months ago. They'll have a new version out in like a year.
