  1. Hi, can I ask you awhy you used Fedora 15 repos and not 17 (and now 18)? Where there some libreries problem? Didn't checked them all because there's a lot.

    1. Hi, sorry for late reply.
      I only wanna get a xdotool, libxdo and tint2 from fedora 15. the biggest reason is, as we know centos is rebuild only using stable package. and fedora 15 is most near with centos 6 for the package version.
      you also can use from latest fedora. but you need more attention for libraries problem. IMHO :D
