You are doing it the hard way.
/etc/yum.repos.d is there for a reason. It makes repo management
modular and does not require that yum.conf be edited for every repo you
may want to add/use.
In general freshrpms/atrpms/rpmforge are compatible with the base fedora
repos. Livna is also compatible with the base repos.
The problem is that for some things livna is not compatible with
freshrpms/atrpms/rpmforge (and vice versa).
I do not recommend that anyone have all those repos enabled at the same
time. It usually leads to dependency nightmares. (Been there, done
that, lost hair as I pulled it out figuring out the problems) 8-))
