Painless way: Wait for next release of Red Hat Linux to be released, which is currently in public beta 2 (Skipjack) Slightly less painless: Upgrade to Skipjack beta. More painful: Upgrade the kernel and all it's dependancies from rawhide. Then freetype, install glut, upgrade Xconfigurator and hwdata from rawhide, then all of the XFree86 packages from rawhide. -- Mike A.
