I have reinstalled fedora 21 x64, and the first time it was installed rpm-fusion worked fine. It actually installed. But this time I just get a message that says "Sorry this did not work". It is really agrivating as I can not install steam or anything else on rpm fusion. It doesen't give me anything to work with except "Sorry this did not work". I am new to fedora, I have never used a non ubuntu system so this is new to me. Right out of the box and im getting errors. I have much to learn about linux.

What exactly did you try doing? and what's the exact error message you got?

Same problem, Aniship's answer worked fine to install steam for me. but started GL2 error, installed i386 nVidia driver package to fix that.

Well, can you try this as root and let us know?

yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm

Then to install steam

yum install steam

Wow! Fantastic, awesome, etc. I usually don't use a lot of adjectives, but... I copied your command into Terminal @ root and and just kept entering Y until all done! Then did the install Steam. Done! Exited Terminal, looked at Activities , and clicked on the Steam icon, voila! I have not logged in yet, have other chores, had to let you know it is exciting to find advice that works. Thanks!

Steam on Fedora 21: OpenGL GLX error

After using Aniship's script to install steam, I got OpenGL GLX error, which was fixed following answers at the above query. The final step for me was installing the nVidia 32-bit package. You might want to try that first.
