I downloaded the crossfire-client-gtk-1.5.0-1.realtime.i386.rpm file, and installed it with rpm -Uvh . How do I start the game?

From the command line, use the following:

gcfclient -server <servername> -<options>

Example:

gcfclient -server metalforge.real-time.com -cache

There are ways to launch the client from the programs menu, but that varies from distro to distro (AFAIK) - the command line is probably the most "universal" way for launching the client.
