Hi all!

Remember my postings about the problems with the X server as of RH 5.1
and my Elsa Winner 2000AVI/3D graphic card? Well, there's more to it.

I get paging problems, kernel panics, hanging kernel without panic,...
You name it, I've got it. So to say the blue screens of Linux. =8-O

The reason is that I installed from RH 5.1 PowerTools instead of from
the original 5.1 CD. Both RH 5.1 differ.

So be warned: Don't install from PowerTools on alphas. (Can't say
anything about the Intel and Sparc versions.)
