Note:To use this procedure in other versions of Fedora, simply change the release number in the url of the rpm -Uhv statement.
Introduction
From Livna:
rpm.livna.org provides many useful packages that can not be distributed in Fedora (previously known as Fedora Core and Extras) for one reason or another, including multimedia applications such as xine and VideoLanClient, and video drivers for ATI and Nvidia cards……
Install repo
To install the Livna repository:
$ rpm -Uhv http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-7.rpm
Now to import the GPG key to verify package signatures:
$ rpm --import http://rpm.livna.org/RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY
Make sure it is enabled
Livna should be enabled by default. You can verify this with the yum repolist all command. If it is not enabled, change the enabled field in /etc/yum.repos.d/livna.repo from “0″ to “1″ in the [livna] section. Here is what mine looks like.

Using livna without enabling it by default
If you wish to not enable the livna repository by default, you can call it specifically by doing yum –enablerepo livna list packagex. For more info, check out the yum man page.
