The recent mangling of patches by RH may have something to do with it (if true). But goes to show that given a need to grow profits, (and all the corollaries that go with it), it is best to avoid a "corporate distro" if you are not paying them for the support. IMO debian is the only suitable distro due to the politics of business and technology. -- Rgds JTD -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
