software installatoin
ho u all
i searched but can't install vlc or other software my centOS just install those software which are already in rpm list i also refer many sites , e.g http://wtuto.com/ |
for a package like vlc on centos (btw.... why?? that's a sign to me you're using the WRONG distro for your needs) you should install the repo from repoforge.org then you'll be able to install it with yum.

Just a couple of things to add...
Have a look at this info on the CentOS.org site https://www.centos.org/modules/newbb...28724&forum=54 Pay special attention to the use of Yum Priorities. When you start mixing and matching repos you can get in a mess. With VLC you WILL get in a mess (at least on CentOS 6 unless things have been sorted in the past few months). I have had good results with VLC from the Linuxtech repo. Have a read here http://scientificlinuxforum.org/inde...showtopic=1425 Ken |
This is the guide to getting extra software
http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalRes...epositories%29 Make sure to use yum-plugin-priorities http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities You can hunt for programs here http://pkgs.org/ http://rpm.pbone.net/ |
if you DISABLE the rpmforge repo and use the "--enablerepo=rpmforge " option you should be mostly safe in installing VLC
After you install the rpmforge repo edit the /etc/yum.repo.d/rpmforge.repo text file change " enabled=1" to " enabled=0" then run Code:
su - it is HIGHLY recommended to have installed and configured " yum-priorities" plugin ,first !!! I am with "acid_kewpie" on this Quote:
put it this way I have been running CentOS and ScientificLinux for YEARS last year i ROYALLY MESSED UP my cent install ( BIG TIME - i had to reinstall ) installing mplayer and vlc with gstreamer |
