RedHat 9.0 is obsolete. RedHat has stopped maintaining that direct product line and it has stopped reciving even direct maintinance over a year ago. Save yourself the trouble and don't use it for new installations. If you like/used-to RedHat, then you have a number of simple options to choose from: * Fedora. Develops fast. Some say that too fast and that it is the playground of RH. Still, it has a live community. The Fedora Legacy does seem to sort-of work so you may even have maintinance for about a year after the end of official maintinance by RH. * RH's commercial RHEL line. Comes with a price tag and with 5 years of guaranteed maintinance by RH. * CentOS, WhiteBox, and other RHEL clones. Use the code of RHEL, rebuild it and strip it off the RH trademarks (as required by RH's trademark usage guidelines). CentOS seems to be doing quite well As for Debian: if the deployment is not right away, you probably should go for Sarge, as it has already been frozen and will probably be officially released quite soon (in a Debian scale). It is already widely used. And the installer is much simpler :-) And as for woody (3.0): did you try all of the kernels that come with it? Specifically: the 2.4fb kernel? -- Tzafrir Cohen | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | best ICQ# 16849755 | | friend ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
