Hi
     Well I've not installed it yet but one problem jumps out at me just by looking at the rpm files provided. They're using 2.2.16 kernels, but using kernel 2.4 headers? They're mixing versions. If you think your sources are messed up, don't install this! Mixing versions of kernels is going to give trouble, trouble you'll have a hard time getting out of. I'd like to see someone compile a module with that. Either it wouldn't compile at all, or it would be for the wrong kernel version. It makes me wonder if they know what the heck they're doing, or if they're simply obsessed with the latest and greatest! If they use 2.2.16 kernels, use those headers. They sure aren't using 2.4 kernels, yet they use 2.4 headers? What's wrong with this picture?
     I had problems in general with RH 6. However, if you want rh, go with rh6, but definitely not 7!
