Newbie question

I've only been using Fedora or any linux for that matter for ~48 hours. Of course I tried to put mprime on my machine. It seems to work when I go to the terminal and check on it there. However, someone on this board said I could access mprime and it would look/feel like prime95. How do I do this?

The mprime client will not look and feel like the Prime95 client, but you can get access to the menu items and see output from the client by starting the client with the -m parameter "./mprime -m". You will then get a menu from where you can do the same type of operations as you can do from the Prime95 menu items. The menus are text based, but easy to understand.

I was doing it right all along. Thanks! Now it's running great. I'll be switching my other computers over before too long.
