- Open a terminal window (right-click on the desktop and select "Open
  Terminal")

- Become root (type "su -" and supply the root password when prompted)

- Install desired software (type "yum install lock-keys-applet")
  Yum is a tool for installing, upgrading and removing packages in 
  Fedora.  It is something you're going to want to learn about.
  Type "man yum" in a terminal windows for the man page.

- Look for any error messages and let us know if you have further
  questions.

- Stop being root (type "exit" or <ctrl><d>) and close your terminal
  (again, "exit" or <ctrl><d>)

In general, you might find <fedora-list at redhat.com> a more useful
list since this test-list is for testing upcoming versions, rather
than use with already released versions.
