I used to run red-carpet and up2date on the same machine. It seemed convenient at the time if up2date wouldn't work due to a high number of users.
The problems I ran into were between the Ximian stuff and the RedHat stuff. One would install a new package which would be uninstalled by the other in favor of its package. The other gotcha was with the Ximian desktop and that when I tried to upgrade to new RedHat release, none of the gnome stuff would be upgraded because it was there in the Ximian packages. I ended up getting rid of red-carpet because of the hassles, but I believe that if you only subscribe to the RedHat channel (if that's even possible) that it may be of some convenience. my $.02 -Steve -----Original Message----- From: Rodolfo J.

I use them both on the same machines w/zero problems. This is why I said "seem to"; I have seen numerous comments on this list about Red Carpet not mixing well with up2date, and it is from this that I derive my unwillingness to risk it. I have test servers and I can experiment there; however, I have only the one notebook on which I work daily, and I cannot risk interrupting my work for stuff that might mess up my machine. -- Rodolfo J.
