i'm kinda newbie in centos.... so clear me something... you say
that I must put this entry
#released i386 updates
[update-i386]
name=CentOS-$releasever - i386 Updates
mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=i386&repo=updates

gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4

in /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo , right?
is there anything else that i must consider?
I would put it in a separate file, e.g. firefox-i386.repo so that it
isn't
overwritten with upgrades to the package that owns CentOS-Base.repo.
Otherwise, that's all you should need.
Good idea to put it in another file as it may be less confusing, but it
should not be necessary to keep it from getting overwritten by an
upgrade, which should create CentOS-Base.repo.rpmnew if the file has
been modified. Either putting it in CentOS-Base.repo or in a new file
will have the same effect.
The new file, if used, can be called anything with a .repo extension as
long as it lives in /etc/yum.repos.d/ - but it helps if the name is
something related to the contents. My suggestion would be
"update-i386.repo" for the example I gave, as that will clue you in as
to what the parameter to "yum --enable <repo> ..." should be.
Another consideration might be to avoid doing something like "yum
--enable update-i386 update" as you might get more than you bargained
for in the way of new i386 packages.

For dependencies, should i use something like
/yum --enable update-i386 install <dependencies>/
or just/
yum install <dependencies>/

I can't find the dependencies for installing firefox.i386. Missing
dependencies are libgnomeui and libbonoboui. I serched them by yum and
web, but nothing (well, actually i found them in the web, but just lead
me to broken lynks, or other distributions).
I use kde in my CentOS 4, is that the problem?
