Sounds like the rpm --setugids didn't work?
Did you have any /usr/local applications installed?
You can use rpm --verify along with it's options to find config files
that have been modified from their defaults and copy those over.
The next install should set all the /etc/X11 stuff for you, no need to
copy it.
You only really need the rpmforge repo def in /etc/yum.repos.d unless
you have a lot of excludes defined in yum.conf.
