Does anyone not what know what is going on ??
Can you resolve mirrors.rpmfusion.org:
[root@prophead ~]# host mirrors.rpmfusion.org
mirrors.rpmfusion.org has address 129.143.116.10
mirrors.rpmfusion.org has address 213.129.242.84
If not, then your DNS isn't set up correctly. Get that fixed and you'll
probably be OK.

I can Ping those two IPs without any problems so that would rule out DNS
problems.
Am I right on that ??
Not if you pinged by IP address. If you pinged by NAME (e.g. "ping
mirrors.rpmfusion.org"), then that would rule out DNS as a name
resolution had to occur.
The "host" command simply does a DNS lookup of the given FQDN (fully
qualified domain name) and returns the IP address(es) of the servers
with that name. In this case, there's two servers in a DNS round robin
load-balanced (also called a DNS-RR) cluster.
