sorry dominic, but when you list multiple entries in this way it is a bit  
hard to find the correct entries -- could you at least specify WHICH  
kernel they refer to? (same goes for XFree86 below)

I had downloaded the rpm of XFree86-4.3.0-2.90.57.legacy and used it so  
far without problems (even with GIMP) but, in reading the new bugreport,  
I'm now a bit confused.

What should I do? cool off while waiting for the more expert testers to  
come up with usable&testable rpms for RH9 or download the srpm and try to  
build the whole shebang on my own (yikes ;) or should I go ahead with my  
report on XFree86 rpms related to ver 4.3.0-2.90.57.legacy or what? :p

I don't know whether to feel happy or embarrassed for this renewed feeling  
of newbieness :D
