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
