Fresh laptop arrived, obviously the first thing to do is to install the latest fedora. then do a full yum update.
However that failed with the following failed dependency
mesa-libGL-7.7-2.fc12.i686 from updates has depsolving problems
--> Missing Dependency: libdrm >= 2.4.17-1 is needed by package mesa-libGL-7.7-2.fc12.i686 (updates)
Error: Missing Dependency: libdrm >= 2.4.17-1 is needed by package mesa-libGL-7.7-2.fc12.i686 (updates)
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
Now I don't really use all the fancy compiz stuff so for now I can just solve it by running
[root@stillmine ~]# yum remove mesa-libGL
