== Graphical Setup via Firefox web browser ==

 1. First enable access to the '''free''' repository. For users of gpk (gnome package kit) that is easy and basically only one step (users of kpackagekit should use the command line to enable RPM Fusion due to [[https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=481081|a bug in kpackagekit]]; see below); just click on one of the following files, depending on what distribution you use and then follow the default options that Firefox and Package Kit offer by clicking ''Enter'' a few times (¹):

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

 1. Once that succeeds, you can enable access to the '''nonfree''' repositories by clicking on one of the following files, depending on what distribution you use and then follow the default options that Firefox and Package Kit offer by clicking ''Enter'' a few times(¹):
  * [[http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm|RPM Fusion nonfree for Fedora 8, 9 or 10]]
  * [[http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-rawhide.noarch.rpm|RPM Fusion nonfree for Fedora Alpha, Beta, Preview, Rawhide, RC, Snapshot]]
  * [[http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/updates/testing/5/i386/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm|RPM Fusion nonfree for RHEL5 or compatible like CentOS]]

~-(¹) 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.-~

== 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 -Uvh 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 Alpha, Beta, Preview, Rawhide, RC, Snapshot: {{{
su -c 'rpm -Uvh 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: {{{
su -c 'rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/updates/testing/5/i386/rpmfusion-free-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/updates/testing/5/i386/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm'
}}}

EPEL

To install EPEL:

wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm
rpm -ivh epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm

priority=50
rpmfusion

To install RPMFusion:

rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/updates/testing/5/i386/rpmfusion-free-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/updates/testing/5/i386/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm

priority=70

 * You need to enable EPEL on RHEL5 or compatible distributions like CentOS ''before'' you enable RPM Fusion for EL

 * The RPM Fusion for EL repositories are still in the early testing stages; hence you (for now) need to enable epel-testing as well, as some of the RPM Fusion packages depend on packages that are currently in epel-testing.

 * All users that used Freshrpms or Livna installed properly (e.g. by installing one of their ''foo-release'' packages) got RPM Fusion free and nonfree repositories enabled automatically.

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

For users of gpk (gnome package kit) that is easy and basically only one step (users of kpackagekit should use the command line to enable RPM Fusion due to a bug in kpackagekit; see below); just click on one of the following files, depending on what distribution you use and then follow the default options that Firefox and Package Kit offer by clicking Enter a few times (¹):
