The Sharplabs FAQ for YDL is dead. The alternate YUM servers listed on Terrasoft.com are dead. Everything is dead. YUM doesn't work, and I'll be unsubscribing to this list as soon as I get around to it because as far as I'm concerned, YDL is dead as a platform.

Hmm. That's an odd error. Are you using the default repositories for
yum? If so, the problem with the "official" repos is that they're
over-loaded.
Unfortunately terrasoft's server hasn't got the capacity to handle the
load (is that perhaps a limitation of yum?... I get the sense yum is
fast becoming a dirty word in the Linux world so perhaps it's a yum
limitation?).
If that's the problem, the fix is easy: pick a repository OTHER than
the default one. See the sharplabs FAQ for details on how to change
your yum.conf file (do a google for Sharplabs YDL FAQ and I'm sure
you'll find it).

YUM update does not work (and has never worked in YDL).
I always get a "failover: out of servers to try" message.
So, YDL MUST be updated manually. Sorry.

OK, so my sound works on YDL 4. That is, I can hear alert sounds, but I
can't play a CD.
What am I missing?
Thanks!
Jeff
