I saw a post in the fedora community portal where a user was mentioning 
adding the freshrpm repo, which I did. Still no luck.  Yum is working, 
it's just that the system is uptodate.


[root at localhost ~]# 
[root at localhost ~]# lshw
-bash: lshw: command not found
[root at localhost ~]# 
[root at localhost ~]# rpm -q lshw
package lshw is not installed
[root at localhost ~]# 
[root at localhost ~]# date
