unfortunately, LinuxConf had grown out of sync with RH over the last
few releases. Not sure why this was allowed to happen, as I understand
that Red Hat had, at one point, been supporting its development. I agree
that it is/was a useful tool, but since it is no longer in sync with
the configs needed for RH, it's not a lot of use. In fact, as of RH8
(and maybe earlier, for all I know) it was officially deprecated
according to the RH release notes. Back at 7.2 some parts of it just
didn't do useful things, it was possible to wedge certain config files
to the point where some subsystems no longer worked.
