- Why does the screen flicker on and off several times during boot and when logging in?
I presume you mean when logging in at the console, the fonts look a bit
glitchy and flickery at times.

no, that's not it.. the monitor goes into power off mode - the LED turns orange.

I don't see it now, in any case, since I login via ssh and dont need to
be at the console.

Yes, I do that too.. but each time I actually need to use the console, this annoys me to no end..

- When I chose a pure console environment, without any X11 stuff, why did a bunch of gnome packages get installed?
As strange as it may seem, some apps which are supposedly text-only,
have dependencies based on the gnome libs.
I can't remember the offending packages offhand, but I don't really care
much since disk-space is so cheap.

Well, sure.. But on the other hand, it is nice to keep bloat down.

- Is it possible to get a php-mssql package? -I need this if I'm going to use CentOS at work..

There is no default rpm for centos5, but one exists for Fedora.

I am aware of this fact, which is why I asked for CentOS to add a php-mssql package..
