My apologies for this but i need to ask a complete beginner question.
I have been using Windows for ages and have Tortoise svn working for wxMax.

I have just installed Ubuntu 8.04 and have followed the instructions in
"Did you see this: http://www.blitzbasic.com/Community/posts.php?topic=54592 ?? "

I now want to svn for wxMax in Ubuntu. I have installed a program called RapidSVN but don't know which option i need to use to get everything. I am also confused about the versions of MinGW and all the other stuff i need.

I have installed BlitzMax v1.18 in a folder called : /home/c2d/BlitzMax and it opens successfully. i haven't tried to compile anything yet.

I am a total newbie for Linux and am afraid i will screw things up without the proper steps to follow.
So far i know how to install programs from the Applications Add/Remove screen and i can launch the Terminal ( i stumbled across the "sudo apt-get install" command for something else, but assume i don't know to use it unless you specifically tell me)
I already have the latest drivers for my NVidia cards.

I really need some concise, simple help.

Regards
Glenn
