You'll find it very helpful. In this instance you can querry for lynx as via one of the following: yum list lynx yum info lynx And, of course, you can install as in: yum install lynx PS: Lynx is always one of the first apps I install on a fresh installation of Fedora on. There are a few other apps I like to have, and I grab them all at once as, for example: yum install lynx ncftp keychain ... Using yum to its fullest will depend on whether you've installed configurations for the various repositores you need. The default installation will give you most of what you need, but it won't give you the SpeakupModified, which is why our yum instrucctions at: http://SpeakupModified.Org/yumming tell you to grab our key and our repository .rpm by hand first as a one time action. Similarly, you might want to get the rpm release file from http://livna.org in order to install mplayer via yum, just to cite one example that I suspect people might care about. Janina
