Post install in Fedora Core 6 and Fedora 7

Post install in Fedora Core 6 and Fedora 7

Fedora 7 really rocks. I recommend to install the livna repository and these packages after the normal installation.

# rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-6.rpm
Install the mp3's plugins
# yum install gstreamer-plugins-ugly
Install totem-xine and firefox plugin
# yum install totem-xine totem-xine-mozplugin
# yum install ffmpeg gstreamer-ffmpeg sox lame faad2 mjpegtools xine-lib-extras-nonfree

Install the plugins to see mpeg videos in Linux
yum install libdvdread
yum install libdvdcss
yum install libdvdnav
yum install xine-lib-extras-nonfree
yum install xine-lib
yum install mplayer

For security reasons i recommend to turnoff these services that come enabled by default:

chkconfig haldaemon off
service haldaemon stop
chkconfig sendmail off
service sendmail stop
chkconfig hplip off
service hplip stop
chkconfig portmap off
service portmap stop
chkconfig avahi-daemon off
service avahi-daemon stop
chkconfig nfs off

chkconfig rpcidmapd off

chkconfig rpcgssd off
service rpcgssd stop
chkconfig autofs off
service autofs stop
chkconfig yum-updatesd off
service yum-updatesd stop
chkconfig nfslock off
service nfslock stop
chkconfig hidd off

chkconfig pcscd off
chkconfig acpid off
