These typos (wrong space characters= in the earlier reply caused too much confusion. It should have been rpm -e rpmfusion-free-release rpmfusion-nonfree-release Sorry. This is very basic RPM usage. One should not simply sit and wait for step-by-step instructions, but notice minor mistakes. A query like rpm --query rpmfusion-free-release rpmfusion-nonfree-release would have told whether the packages are installed. rpm -qf /etc/yum.repos.d/rpmfusion* would have given a hint, too. Can't be too hard.
Sorry, no excuse for the typo. I do recognize my own inability to type accurately and normally catch errors. In that case, what I sent you was done from this computer via ssh but had been done several times , cut and paste, on box9, the unit in trouble. I think I've fixed the problem though. VLC is installing now as I type this. I simply copied the repo files from this box7 [F-16/64] to box9 via stfp. Once done yum install vlc worked. Yes VLC starts now on box9. I thank you very much for your help, without it I would still be struggling ... I will save your comments in my notes for the next time.
