Chun,
It sounds like you are fairly new to linux. You make want to stick with just
Yum until you feel a bit more confident. It integrates nicely with the
redhat/fedora updates whereas apt you really need to be careful of what you
are doing (as it doesn't seen to be the package manager of choice).
HTH,
Harry
