Background:
 I started with Linux with slackware downloaded on 14
(?) floppy disks by ftp from MIT. I changed to Redhat
and then dropped off Linux to do genealogy for a
couple of years. (now we have GRAMPS and maybe I
wouldn't leave Linux today) When I came back, I
started again with Core 4. I was quite happy with that
until Legacy went belly up. All I really wanted for
updates was security updates. I am just a desktop user
so my needs should be relatively small. I did a yum
upgrade to core5 with few problems, apparently caused
by mismatches in repos for xine.

It sounds to me like FC may not be the best distro for
you. FC has lots of "thrash". If all you want is for
it to "just work", then perhaps CentOS or Debian or
perhaps Ubuntu would be better.

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
