I have a generic nvidia 5500fx agp,on fedora core 3_64,

I found where I can adjust the screen and configure my card but it doesnt
say anything about 3d configuration. I wanna play my 'Tux Racer'!

also, in Gnome, I dont have a news reader. (That seems like someone forgot
something while putting the distro together) I like 'Pan' a lot, but its
not listed anywhere on my install dvd. how do i install programs that i get
off the internet on fedora?

Can i get a redhat 9 tutorial somewhere and pretty much learn how to use
fedora from that book?

Thanx for your help
