Phil, can youclarify a bit for me pls?
I was under the impression that the priorities feature of yum was for
the specific purpose of controlling the order in which repos were used
for updates, etc.
I have elrepo set with a lower number (40) than rpmfusion (50), so
why wouldn't yum be prevented from installing files from rpmfusion in
preference to those from elrepo?
I've used the elrepo nvidia drivers for some years and been pleased
with the level of service you provide. For free, yet! :)
thanks in advance!
