Thats ok, Eli ;)
Redhat 7.1 got now a nicer installer, it knows how much swap it needs (it
wanted me to setup 515MB swap partition!)
It also got the latest GCC - 2.96-81 which fixes more inline assembly and
some STL stuff which wasn't compiling well, and XFree comes with more
patches from the next version of XFree (Matrox G450 is much better
supported).
The only thing it breaks is that biditext and gtkbidi with applications like
XChat. Who's the maintainer of biditext?
Thanks,
Hetz
