Does anyone have a clue?

yum groupinstall TeX support ?

What are you lacking?

Do `yum provides LaTex`.

That should tell you the package group name for LaTex. I am not sure what
you are referring to when you when you say distribution.

You can also browse through the package groups with `yum groups list` and
`yum groupinfo groupname`.

I'm not sitting in front of my SL box right now, but I think the package
group you want is Authoring and Publishing.

Yum is a nifty little package manager. Do `yum --help` and try the
different options.

The output of `yum grouplist` on SL6 includes TeX support and on SL5 
includes Authoring and Publishing.
