Re: F11 Preview - First impressions

Thanks Antonio. My video card is indeed a nVidia, that my explain why I
don't see the logo.

I still have the problem with KDE and ** any other package I try to
install**, including non repo apps such as Skype or Flash Player. This
happens both using the GUI and CLI.
See the following two attempts (I removed useless parts):

[root@squarz yum.repos.d]# yum install "K Desktop Environment"
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Setting up Install Process
No Match for argument: K Desktop Environment
No package K Desktop Environment available.
Nothing to do
[root@squarz yum.repos.d]#

-------

[root@squarz yum.repos.d]# yum groupinstall "KDE (K Desktop Environment)"
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Setting up Group Process

[...]

Transaction Summary
================================================================================
Install    118 Package(s)
Update       6 Package(s)
Remove       0 Package(s)

Total size: 306 M
Is this ok [y/N]: y
Downloading Packages:


Package kdelibs-common-4.2.2-12.fc11.x86_64.rpm is not signed
[root@squarz yum.repos.d]#



Most probably I do something wrong, but I'd really like to know what!

Thanks for your time,

Enrico,

Can't remember from the top of my head a trick to skip gpg-signatures.  In Fedora
rawhide the gpgcheck should be set to 0.  You can become su - or use 
$ su -c 'vi /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-rawhide.repo 

and remove the 1 and make it a zero

[root@localhost yum.repos.d]# cat fedora-rawhide.repo 
# These packages are untested and still under development. This
# repository is used for development of new releases.
#
# This repository can see significant daily turnover and major
# functionality changes which cause unexpected problems with other
# development packages. Please use these packages if you want to work
# with the Fedora developers by testing these new development packages.
#
# fedora-test-list(a)redhat.com is available as a discussion forum for
# testing and troubleshooting for development packages in conjunction
# with new test releases.
#
# More information is available at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Testing

.....

That should get KDE installed.  Make it a zero and save the file, try to install KDE
again.  Hope this helps.

Antonio
