Hi Ed, just my 2 cents worth, I have the same setup as Patrick, and
like Patrick I use the negativo17 repositories for Nvidia (I found
rpmfusion to be not reliable enough with their binary files for
nvidia), but I'm also using their repositories for Handbrake and
Steam. I didn't have any issues with the repository name of
Fedora-Multimedia, to me it was obvious what it was. Negativo17
supports multiple distributions and to me it makes perfect sense to
name the repositories for the distribution they are for, the only
source of potential confusion could be where he uses the same
repository name for different versions of the same distribution.
Two comments. First, I've never used negativo17, but I've never heard
anything bad about it. Second, my understanding is that you can
either use it or rpmfusion but not both, to prevent conflicts. I've
always used rpmfusion, which is why I've never tried negativo17.
I use Negativo17 because in the past I have found that rpmfusion were
very tardy with their Nvidia binary files in keeping pace with kernel
version changes. I have all the negativo17 repositories enabled and all
the rpmfusion repositories enabled, so far without any apparent
conflicts, which may just be luck on my part.
regards,
Steve
