Hi,

I've been a CentOS user for a few years, and I just decided to switch to 
SL. I installed it on two of my sandbox PCs in my office. First reaction 
: I like it a lot!

I expect a few things to be different than CentOS, and maybe the odd 
rough edge here and there. First things first.

Does the RPMForge third party repo work OK with SL ? Because I just 
configured it and tried a 'yum install mplayer' and got a load of Yum 
error messages about missing dependencies.

I'm aware this question could possible (also?) belong on the RPMForge 
mailing list, though I'm not exactly sure.

Which third party repo do you guys recommend?

Cheers from the sunny South of France,

Niki Kovacs
