If you are saying they are "smart" for going with Windows or Mac 
only...and you are still on Linux then maybe you need to get smarter 
yourself and switch to Windows or Mac?

I'm not very interested in looking at the output of 2 out of X commands 
that you've typed and try to ascertain from that what *MAY* be the 
problem.  There is just too much left to the imagination.

FWIW, I had neither livna or freshrpms repos enabled....nor did I have

watching Casino Royale.  Attached is the relevant portion of the yum 
install.
