How to create you repo's using gedit. This is intended for our newbies. Dont forget to import the keys.
Update: I am using: enable=1 and gpgcheck=1 FOR ALL OF THEM

1. open terminal and become root (su + password)

2. type: gedit /etc/yum.repos.d/freshrpms.repo

copy and paste it and CLICK ON SAVE!!:

[freshrpms]
name=FreshRPMS-Fresh

enabled=0
gpgcheck=1

3. gedit /etc/yum.repos.d/dag.repo

copy and paste it

[dag]

This is the FC3 GPG-Key: rpm --import /usr/share/doc/fedora-release-3/RPM-GPG-KEY*

Here are GPG-keys at fedora FAQ

This is how you use yum to install and uninstall: here

PLEASE NOTE: you can enabled=1 or dislable: enabled=0 and same apply to this line: gpgcheck=1 to gpgcheck=0. Update: I am using: enable=1 and gpgcheck=1 FOR ALL OF THEM

you actually can't do:

su -
gedit

because you will end up with an error saying the screen can't be opened. you actually have to be logged in as root, or use something like "kdesu" or whatever the gnome equivalent is. or do:

That's why I said "become root".
