A week or so ago, after installing RH 8.0, the Up2Date agent upgraded my kernel from 2.4.18-14 to 2.4.18-17.8.0. Now I usually think upgrades and updates are a good thing, but this time around it's been a problem. Using either Gnome or KDE. the panels take an incredibly long time to load -- almost to the point of being unusable..
Fortunately, Up2Date doesn't remove the "obsolete" kernel, so I'm able to avoid the problem. On the other hand, one assumes RH updated the kernel for a reason. Has anyone else run across this problem and is there a fix for it?
Thanks.
