I recall, hrmmmmmm RH4 i think it was, maybe earlier, an automatic 
update rendored my desktop useless, they corrected it within hours, but 
thats too late for the poor suckers like me that were affected, since 
then, a valuable lesson learnt was never trust a vendors "update" 
verbatim, and since then, I've never used a RH kernel, once bitten ok,
twice bitten your a damned fool.
