fc6: core + livna repositories

[PawelCarqowski]

hallo Group Members.

I noticed some strange behavior of my fc6. Some popular programs do
not work well. A week ago I had problem with sane. THen I updated
packages with yum. Then I noticed that oowriter crashes when 
trying to save a file. I updated again (4 days ago). Then noticed that firefox is
not working correctly: it crashes after a few minutes of working.

Is it possible that the problem is with my repositories? I use ONLY
fedora stable repository and livna. Both of them are enabled during
update. Do YOu experience any problems with such a mix?

regards!

I haven't had any such problems, and I'm using the same repos.  But, I
haven't used sane for a while, and I did see a note about a recent
update for open office having a bug that crashed while just opening a
file requester, and there was a subsequent update to fix that the next
day.  Try updating again, perhaps.

I think the only things that I use Livna with are mplayer and nvidia
(not that I can get nvidia to work without crashing).  Perhaps Xine and
VLC, as well, but I haven't checked where I got them from.  It'd be
Livna or the Fedora repos.  Livna and the Macromedia repo are the only
third-party ones that I'm using.
