If you have, was it smooth sailing or tricky? Did it wipe out all your
local configuration (/etc stuff), or preserve it? (Guess it depends on
what RH considers "upgrade" to mean.)
I have /home and /usr/local on a separate partition from /.
I think I'm beating my head against a brick wall trying to stop X
locking up my system by upgrading to XFree86 4.2.0 from RH 7.3. Maybe
it's easier to upgrade the whole system?
Or even, to wait a little longer till 7.4 is released.
But it really rankles that my Linux machine crashes quite reliably, and
my wife's old Windows 95 system is *in comparison* quite robust.
