But I don't use the graphical tools very often, so yumex was new to me. Is it just a front-end to yum, and is there anything that yumex does that yum can't? > These repositories locations are defined in *.repo files that can be found > in the /etc/yum.repos.d directory, and they are plain text files. Normally, adding yum repositories is not too hard; but I'm not very familiar with which repositories exist and which ones I should try using. You mentioned the RPM Fusion repositories; where do I find out more about that? However, that's fine for an already-running system. But I'm not aware of how to configure any of this when booting from the F11 DVD. How in the install/upgrade process can you tell it to do something different? > http://www.ghacks.net/2009/01/14/fedora-10-and-the-evolution-of-xorg/ Thanks for the link. I was vaguely aware of some of that, but it is interesting nonetheless. > As far as I can tell you probably need to configure for the old nv video > drivers rather than the nouveau ones it's trying to use. Agreed, either that or somehow get it to use a newer/fixed version somehow (which I hope is fixed by F12). > Hope these pointers help you resolve your problems.
