Hi there, Unless you have a modified kernel (ie you need extra drivers etc that aren't in the standard redhat kernel) you should just use the speakup modified redhat kernel available from the website. I haven't looked to see if there's a patched kernel rpm for 7.2, but if there isn't, there should be no reason why you can't use the 7.3 rpm on 7.2, the kernel shouldn't depend on anything that's been updated. The only time you would want to use the speakup tar file under redhat is if you need a custom kernel for some other purpose.
