Comment 1 Tim Lauridsen 2011-04-04 07:16:53 UTC 
Look like yumex cant detect that you have a network connection, so it disables all your remote repositories.

You can run 
yumex --disable-netcheck

to disable the network connection check.

what version of NetworkManager are you running ?

rpm -q NetworkManager
Comment 2 A. Mani 2011-04-05 00:10:48 UTC 
I have disabled network manager and connect via bridge mode.


#yumex --disable-netcheck

/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/guihelpers/__init__.py:256: GtkWarning: gtk_scrolled_window_add(): cannot add non scrollable widget use gtk_scrolled_window_add_with_viewport() instead
  self.add_from_file(filename)


WORKS 

But the pop up windows are blank except for the title  e.g 'Processing Pending Actions', etc
Comment 3 Tim Lauridsen 2011-04-05 05:01:21 UTC 
you can add disable_netcheck=1 to ~/.yumex.conf to disable the netcheck permanently
