yum list updates, thats what you want. There is no such command
check-updates anymore.
3) I need to do a total system update with yum. Is there one command

yum update

you can rerun kudzu with various options once the machine is running,
look at the man page for more info
5) no sound
once your machine is updated, run system-config-sound, that will find
and activate your sound card fine.
6) windfarm module problems
I have no idea wtf the the windfarm is :)
Any ideas, suggestions, advice would be appreciated. Hopefully you or
someone else will have some good ideas. I need every bit of help that I
can get at this point. I am about to tear my hair out and I can't be
positive that 4.1 is going to solve all of this :-( My experience hasn't
4.1 of what ? there is no FC4.1 - its going to be FC5 now.
been very good so far, so best to deal with the problems that I know,
try to get it to work and then deal with a possible upgrade to 4.1 when
I have a better idea of what I can get sorted out now. Here is what my
system looks like:
Hardware Overview:
Machine Name: Power Mac G5
Machine Model: PowerMac9,1
CPU Type: PowerPC G5 (3.0)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 1.8 GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
Memory: 1 GB
Bus Speed: 600 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 5.2.2f2
At this time I am running FC4/ FC5(rawhide) and a CentOS4 install on my
G5, they all run great - baring the few hicups I had a few days back
with rawhide.

What problem are you having with the fans ? are they running at full
speed ? as root run 'modprobe therm_pm72' does that resolve the situation ?
For some obscure reason, I didnt all the emails from this thread... just
some of the odd sniplets.
