	I'm a little perplexed as to why yum would have access to packages  
that the package manager can't see, but i'm game to give it a try.   
Right now can somebody tell me why the root password that works in  
Package Manager isn't accepted in the command line for either 'sudo  
yum *' or 'sudo su'?

	Okeh, the login screen let me login as root.  However, running the  
command line as given [well, minus the splat] ends with:

No Match for argument: wesnoth
No Match for argument: wesnoth-tools
No Match for argument: wesnoth-server
Nothing to do

	It appears as if the operative phrase in the above quotation is  
"enabled in Fedora by default".  We can plainly see that it ain't  
enabled in YDL by default.  So again, if YDL is supposed to be able  
to access these repositories, i'll need to know how to configure  
things, cuz i'm getting nowhere fast.  If i was psychic, i surely  
would contact Brian Pepple.
