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.

   Bob
