Craig, Fedora 2 is installed on my computer. Thanks to Mattheius. I have four C/D's, Two installed the o/s, the other two I have no clue what to do with. There may even be a media player on the discs My newbieness is the cause of most of my problems I think. I will try to set up the yum. I need to know how to open or, get to, /etc/yum.conf so that I can paste the infomation to it. My original plan was to download xine because the Australian Linux journal said it was an easy install and a good programme, then came all the dependancies and confusing stuff so I went for what I thought was an easier option, Hmmnn!
Since you want to use FreshRPMs, copy and paste the following to your /etc/yum.conf (as root)
[freshrpms] name=FreshRPMs baseurl=http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linux/$releasever/ $basearch/freshrpm s/
http://ftp.us2.freshrpms.net/linux/freshrpms/ayo/fedora/linux/$releasever/$b...
