Thanks to all those who chimed in to help. My Linux box is a personal pc
and I have been thinking about upgrading. At that point I will also upgrade
to PostgreSQL v8.2.5.
Happy New Year to all!

No.
It is not ok to run any RedHat Linux, as thay are totally not
supported and insecure.
You should as soon as possible install RedHat Enterprise 5 (or a
clone like CentOS 5)
It is fully functional, but has few
packages. I think that docs interfaces and contrib are in separate
packages.
There are also pgsql modules for php that are not
listed under "database" packages but http server or something like
that.

Complete, functional, full blown working

started using it yet, is a good idea.
