Hi, I have run into a problem in upgrading my Linux systems. I bought a copy of RedHat Enterprise 3 WS in the USA a couple of months ago, thinking that it was about time to retire my v7.2 system. Unfortunately, when I installed it on a Dell Dimension that has been working perfectly with v7.2 for a long time, it was a disaster. Many applications didn't work properly or at all, my USB ports disappeared and in the end I had to reinstall v7.2 to get anything useful done. I didn't dare try upgrading my Web server.
I wonder if anyone has any idea why this should happen. Is it RedHat moving away from supporting KDE? (a completely speculative hypothesis) I'm thinking of moving to SUSE, as I tried it and RedHat when I last upgraded (RedHat was slightly better). I'd appreciate advice from anyone who is a RedHat and/or SUSE guru. Thanks in advance. Please CC me as I'm not subscribed (I'm already getting too much mail from other lists).
