Yes, no problem. You might want to be careful about inter-repository
compatibility, though -- RPMForge and Livna may package the same stuff
in different ways. You're probably best off choosing just to install the
Livna packages *or* the rpmforge packages.

Easiest way to enable livna for yum:
rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-6.rpm

That will tell yum how to access livna, and make the repository
available. Then you can just yum install what you want.

Eh? There's plenty for FC6.
