    How do I know which update I need

    I have just installed Fedora 15 and currently trying to install some drivers but looks like i am missing a some modules or packages. How do i know which modules or packages I need? So far I have only ran teh following commands.

    yum install kernel-devel kernel-headers
    yem install gcc

    Which other one do I need to run and how do I know?

    What is it that makes you think your are missing modules/packages? Show the output of whatever command it is that you are running that is prompting your question.

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    Yum will try to resolve missing dependencies, so if you need gcc for kernel-devel, then it will be installed for you.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

    Which drivers are you trying to install?
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
