yum update <doesn't>

I am having a problem with a new install of FC1.

This is a new machine, and I installed FC1 then tried to do a yum update.

I am using a yum.conf file that was provided on this list last month, so 
it is using mirrors. The yum.conf file worked a short time ago  to do an 
update on another box I have.

With this one, it goes through the process of checking sources, 
downloads some headers, then gives a few messages about the best 
packages, but gets to XFree86, XFree86-tsm, and XFree86-xfs. and says 
the dependency loop is exceeded and all 3 need the XFree86.libs package 
which is not provided.

The version listed on all XFree86 packarges is 4.3.0-55.  I tried this 
several times over the past week with the same result each time.

Does anybody have any suggestions for a better source that will satisfy 
the needed dependencies?

TIA
