I tried all that you said, but with no changes, I got the same error. 1) At "/etc/yum.repos.d/ I found these files: adobe-linux-i386.repo atrpms.repo fedora-development.repo fedora-install-media.repo fedora.repo fedora-updates.repo fedora-updates-testing.repo freshrpms.repo jpackage.repo kde-redhat.repo livna-devel.repo livna.repo livna-testing.repo planetccrma.repo rpmforge.repo I've removed these: fedora-updates.repo|atrpms.repo|jpackage.repo|livna-devel.repo|livna-testing.repo|planetccrma.repo|rpmforge.repo 2) Futhermore I checked the "rpm -qa|grep -i ati" and found nothing, only these packages were present: startup-notification-devel konversation tomcat-native krb5-workstation startup-notification lohit-fonts-gujarati gutenprint-foomatic liberation-fonts foomatic That's all I have. I tried "yum install kmod-fglrx" once more and got the same message. Have any ideas? Ivan. mailto:bravo.elf@xxxxxxxxx
