You can't answer "none" to the question "what is the *most* stable release"...
I'm asking this as a person I know uses Linuxconf. He knows nothing about
Linux. He doesn't want to use anything else. He is running the linuxconf that
comes with RH6.2. I know there must be a bit more stable and
The problem is that, in my experience, it is the correct answer.

Webmin only makes the changes you request it to make, and has been a more
stable and secure product.

To give an example in my own case I added a SCSI card and cdwriter to my

connected to my machine when I installed my RH distro then neither of them

hope you soved the problem by now
just in case you did not, you need to have the XKeysymDB file (attached) in
