= Installing Free and Nonfree Repositories =

Installation can be done either using a web browser, or via the command line.

== Graphical Setup via Firefox web browser ==

Enabling access to the '''free''' repository is easy and basically only one step:

  1. click on one of the following files, depending on what the distributions you use and then follow the default options that Firefox and Package Kit offer by clicking '''Enter''' a few times:

 * [[http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm|Fedora 8, 9 or 10]]
 * [[http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-rawhide.noarch.rpm|Fedora Alpha, Beta, Preview, Rawhide]]
 * [[http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/updates/testing/5/i386/rpmfusion-free-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm|RHEL5 or compatible like CentOS]]

Verbose: Once you clicked on above link Firefox will ask you how to ''Open the file''. Here you can simply use the default and open the file with the default application ''Package Installer''. Then Firefox will call Package Kit, which asks ''Do you want to install this file ?''. Click ''OK'' to begin install; The install should go through various testing, and installing stages, and then complete. That's all.

Once that succeeds, you can enable access to the '''nonfree''' repositories:

  1. click on one of the following files, depending on what the distributions you use and then follow the default options that Firefox and Package Kit offer by clicking '''Enter''' a few times:

 * [[http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm|Fedora 8, 9 or 10]]
 * [[http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-rawhide.noarch.rpm|Fedora Alpha, Beta, Preview, Rawhide]]
 * [[http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/updates/testing/5/i386/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm|RHEL5 or compatible like CentOS]]

The individual steps after clicking on the link are the same as the ones for the '''free''' repository.

=== Command Line Setup using rpm ===

To enable access to both the '''free''' and the '''nonfree''' repository use the following command:

 * Fedora 8, 9 or 10: {{{
su -c 'rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm'
}}}

 * Fedora Rawhide: {{{
su -c 'rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-rawhide.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-rawhide.noarch.rpm'
}}}

 * RHEL5 or compatible like CentOS: {{{

To enable access via ''yum'' to the '''free''' repository, use the following command as root:

{{{
rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm
}}}

If you want to enable access to the '''nonfree''' repository as well, you also need to type this command as root:

{{{
rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm

== Rawhide ==

If you installed a Fedora Beta or you use Rawhide then use the following command to enable RPM Fusion free for rawhide:

{{{
rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-rawhide.noarch.rpm
}}}

And also this one if you want to use non-free too:

{{{
rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-rawhide.noarch.rpm
}}}
