RedHat 7.2 Kernel inconsistencies...

I am seeing problems in RedHat kernels, where previously fixed bugs are reappearing. One annoying one is the KYLIX "file open" dialog lock up problem that comes and goes. The original kernel that shipped with 7.2 worked fine. Then after upgrading the kernel, I encountered this lockup problem. Falling back to the old kernel got me going again. When the next kernel came out (sorry but I don't remember the version), it worked fine (no lockup). I assumed we were past the "problem". Along comes the next kernel, and the lockup problem is back. It seems that every new kernel fixes or breaks the KYLIX "file open" dialog. On Borland's site their solution is to use the older kernel, but I would really like to have the latest kernel, and figure out what is causing the problem. I am suspecting that the kernels are being built by different people within RedHat and the kernel options or libraries are not always consistent. This also concerns me because other, previously fixed, bugs or vulnerabilities may reappear? Does anyone have any ideas about this problem? Fred Hebert [email protected]
