Hi forum,

Kind regards

Rep:
Please show the output from the command :
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/
And also tell if you have Redhat support.
Redhat EL is not free, and you will have to pay
to set up a Redhat.repo .
Without it, you can't use any other repo's.

Rep:
'epel.repo', 'rpmforge.repo' etc.
Those are files with a link to a repository,
which can supply extra packages.
The rpmfusion.repo is incomplete,
.. the file rpmfusion.repo seems missing ?
But first : Which package(s) do you want to install ?
Please do this command :
# yum list available > yum.list.available.txt
.. which will create a text file in /home/'username'/
.. with all the packages, you can install.
The list has a text describing the repo name, so please
have a look, to see if rpmforge appears.
