I did upgrade my HP Kayak PII-256MB system to RH 8.0. The performance was very sloppy. Hence I reverted back to 7.3. Thanks for your inputs.

It's better you upgrade the hole system . You forgot to mention the most important issue. RH 8.0 Binaries are complied with gcc 3.2. RH 7.x binaries are compiled with gcc 2.96. The RH 8.0 binaries on the RH 7.x system are going to take one good look at libstdc and tell you immediately that the version is incorrect (was going to say something else, but you get the idea). It may be possible, however, to grab the SRPMs for the package you want and compile it for RH 7.x, but you may get unpredictable results (from package dependancy issues to programs looking at invalid pathing (especially in the case of redhat-config-x). Any reason for not taking the leap and upgrading the entire system to RH 8.0? You'll get the packages you want... *G*. - -Rick - -- Rick Johnson, RHCE - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux/WAN Administrator - Medata, Inc.
