+If you have not done so yet, download and install Fedora.

+Open a terminal window and install some software. In Fedora, the default user 
+has no permission to call "sudo", so we will change user a few times:
+
+  su root
+  yum groupinstall "Development Tools"

+If you are planning to use the Code::Blocks IDE, also install this
+
+  yum install codeblocks.i686  (for 64 bit machines)
+
+Don't forget to leave root status (Ctrl-D) before loading FLTK. To install FLTK 
+for every user, you either have to set root user again, or use "visudo" to add 
+yourself to the "sudo" list.
