what the heck?  mine reads:

if ! fgrep -q nogui /proc/cmdline && [ "$BOOTUP" = "color" -a "$GRAPHICAL" = "yes" -a -x /usr/bin/rhgb ]; then
   /usr/bin/rhgb
   RHGB_STARTED=1
fi

  is one a newer version?  i've been letting yum update stuff
automatically.  which is the industry-approved version?  is one version or
the other set at install time based on something?  how odd.
