I have the presto module installed, but upon checking found I didn't have the rest of the packages. So, I installed them. I can't find .repo to put the url in. So, I dinked with the presto-utils and they need certain parameters in order to proceed. I went to the howto link but it just said insert the url below to .repo ...which I cannot find. So, went and searched the archives but most everything I found was for FC8 or old dates, nothing recent. I'd sure like to give this puppy a try, is there a good step-by-step available?? Thanx for your hard work.
