[CentOS] Wiki updates needed for rpmrepo.org when it's up & running

[Lanny Marcus]

When rpmrepo.org is up and running properly, there are 2 or 3 Wiki
pages that need to be updated. I wiped the HD on my daughter's box and
am trying to install multimedia on it again. The change from RPMForge
to rpmrepo.org requires some minor updates to several Wiki pages.

http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/MultimediaOnCentOS

http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories

IMHO, the stuff on the Wiki is a wonderful asset. Especially, for
those of us who are Newbies. Much appreciated!

Yes, sure, and I already have those covered in the back of my head. But
rpmrepo will still take some time >:)

There is no change yet. Just use rpmforge or ATrpms like you used to use 
it.

I  imagine that it will take a lot of time. It looks like you have
lots of work ahead of you, to get the new site up and running
completely. My need isn't urgent, so I will be patient and wait until
you can get to updating the Wiki.

Kai: I tried to use rpmforge, about 4 hours ago, and there was an
error. My daughter is using her box now, so I can't try it at this
time, because she is using M$ Windows at the moment, so I can't ssh
into it and try it again, at this time. I will try again, ASAP.

After I got Priorities installed and configured for the CentOS
repositories, I tried to add RPMForge. I think it was on this URL:
 and when I tried:
rpm -Uhv 
http://apt.sw.be/packages/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm
I got an error back. Then, I tried going to rpmforge.com which seemed
to be working at a minimal level and then to rpmrepo.org  which
isn't fully functional yet. I will try it again, ASAP. I've used those
Wiki pages in the past, without any problems, so I think it's just the
change to rpmrepo.org  Lanny

Again: There is *NO* change to rpmrepo.org yet. Nothing has changed over
the last weeks.

I will try it again, ASAP. It sure wasn't working properly for me
early this morning (GMT -5).

because this won't work. Download and install. You should do this *always* 
when you get an error remote installing an rpm.

Kai: I also went to RPMForge and tried to download  and install the
RPM, but there was a problem with that too. Possibly it was a
temporary problem. I had the RPM on the Desktop and tried to install,
but no go. I will try again, ASAP. I have Priorities set up on that
box, so if I can add the RPMForge Repository to the CentOS
repositories, then I'm good to go.  Lanny

Lanny, this is the package you want:

http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/i386/rpmforge/RPMS/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm

Steve: Thanks. I will try that when I can get onto that box. Also, I
just found this page:
 which includes this:

wget 
http://packages.sw.be/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.$dist.rf.$arch.rpm
rpm -Uhv rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.$dist.rf.$arch.rpm

Probably the same RPM.  Probably it will be tomorrow morning, before I
can try this. Lanny

SOLVED: I have the RPMForge and Adobe repositories installed. I will
begin installing the Multimedia stuff in a minute. I do not remember
doing it this way before, but that was months ago and I'm sure that in
fact, I did it this way before.  Not my day today

(a) Install DAG's GPG key (b) Verify the package you have downloaded
(c) Install the package

FOLLOW ON: Listened to KOOL (97.3 FM in Anchorage, AK) on
streamaudio.comIt was last November, when I installed multimedia
the previous time. Works great with a video of my favorite singer
(Juan Luis Guerra) on his web site. He will do 3 concerts in
California this weekend, for those of you in California. The strangest
thing, after getting RPMForge installed and installing everything,
was that I discovered the Left speaker on my daughters box was dead.
She is normally quick to complain, if DirecTV or her computer has a
problem.. Now, she has two speakers that work properly.  :-)
