I love RedHat 8.0 and have installed it on 2 laptops (updates) and one desktop (fresh install). However, it's not without its glitches. I have several questions for the list: 1. Man pages have strange characters in them. After doing an install of 8.0, man (e.g., man man) displays the man page with occasional a^ (^ over the a) symbols and the "-"s are missing. Is this a LOCALE issue? I do not see this problem on my laptop (RH 7.3 updated to 8.0). 2. Can't launch up2date. On my laptop, while logged in as a user, I tried to launch up2date. I got the prompt for the root PW, entered it then nothing happened. I tried to launch it from an xterm, logged in as root; up2date seems to hang. From the root login, up2date-nox seemed to hang as well. 3. RPM hung for all operations until reboot. Yesterday on a desktop, I tried loading mozilla 1.1. The RPM hung. I killed it. I tried doing queries, installs, --rebuilddb, etc. Each program hung. I finally tried the **Windows (C)(R) Microsoft ** solution of reboot and upon login, rpm worked fine and I could update Mozilla. A reply with suggestions/fixes would be most welcomed. -- Wade Hampton
