Installing videolan-client did work, but I'd like to figure out the problem. I don't have fedora-extras repo. I have the ones listed below. I've searched on google and everything says it's in FC4 by default. Don't know what happened to mine. Can you tell me where I can get the repos that are in FC4 by default?


No repo other than release & updates are in FC4 by default. With FC5
you'll also get fedora extras by default.

Extras is also enabled in FC4 by default.


No, only after FC5 inclusive. On vanilla FC4 you get

# grep enabled /etc/yum.repos.d/*extras*
/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-extras-devel.repo:enabled=0
/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-extras.repo:enabled=1

fedora-extras.repo:enabled=1

I rest my case.

Paul.
