-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The RPM Fusion team is proud to announce the public availability of our ''free'' and ''nonfree'' package repositories for Fedora 11 (Leonidas). The repositories contain multimedia applications, kernel drivers, games and other software the Fedora Project doesn't want to ship for various reasons. RPM Fusion repositories give Fedora 11 the ability to play all kinds of audio and video formats -- including, but not limited to MP3s or video files in MPEG or Xvid formats. You can browse the repository contents for the i386 architecture via these URLs (x86-64, ppc and ppc64 are supported as well): http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/releases/11/Everything/i386/os/repoview/index.html http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/releases/11/Everything/i386/os/repoview/index.html To make RPM Fusion repositories available on a freshly installed Fedora 11 system run the following command: {{{ su -c 'rpm -ivh \ http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm \ http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm' }}} (Reminder: You need to cut'n'paste all three lines) More details and a GUI based way how to configure and use RPM Fusion can be found in our wiki at http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration You can also enable RPM Fusion while installing Fedora 11 -- details and some screenshots that should give you an idea how everything works can be found at http://rpmfusion.org/EnablingRpmFusionDuringFedoraInstall Please note that the graphics drivers from AMD are not available in the repositories right now as they are not compatible with the Kernel from Fedora 11. Note that the Nvidia drivers are available via the updates-repos only. There is still a lot of room for a whole lot of improvements in RPM Fusion. If you want to help then join us! Our mailing lists can be found at http://lists.rpmfusion.org/mailman/listinfo Thanks for you interest in RPM Fusion. ~ The RPM Fusion Team (http://rpmfusion.org) == More details == === Reminder for the folks that plan to yum-update to Fedora 11 === If you have RPM Fusion packages installed on your system already and plan to live-update to Fedora 11 using yum then please leave the RPM Fusion repositories enabled for the big "yum update" run. Only then you'll get all the updated packages from RPM Fusion as well, which is important, as their dependencies get fulfilled by the Fedora 11 packages. That's not the case for the old packages that are on your system right now -- those in fact have dependencies on the older Fedora bits you are about to update, which will lead to a lot of trouble. Please note that we use a different key to sign packages in the repos for Fedora 11. Installing the latest rpmfusion-free-release rpmfusion-nonfree-release packages from the updates-repos before doing the big update run should make things "just work". === Examples to get the most important bits from RPM Fusion === Once you installed the release rpm you can install software using the graphical software installation tools which are part of Fedora. As root-user you can also use yum on a command line to install packages; for example: ~ * GNOME: PackageKit will normally install all codecs on demand for apps that use gstreamer as backend; if you want to get them manually run this command as root: {{{ # yum install gstreamer-ffmpeg gstreamer-plugins-bad\ gstreamer-plugins-ugly }}} ~ * KDE: xine-lib is used as default backend for apps that use phonon; to make it able to play more audio and video formats run {{{ # yum install xine-lib-extras-freeworld }}} ~ * if you want to use mplayer, run one ofthe following commands {{{ # yum install mplayer-gui # yum install gnome-mplayer }}} ~ * if you prefer VLC, run {{{ # yum install vlc }}} ~ * want to PGP sign or encrypt your mails using thunderbird? Then run: {{{ # yum install thunderbird-enigmail }}} === PAE Remider === Fedora 11 installs a PAE-Kernel on most modern x86-32(i386/ix86)-Systems. If that's the case on your system then you need to use command like "yum install kmod-PAE-nvidia" (note the "-PAE" in the middle!) to get the kmods that match the kernel from Fedora.
