Hi,

I've noticed a few people making passing comments about RH 8.0 and how it 
has a few issues.  I have been even more happy with RH 8.0 than 7.3.  I have 
a few 7.3 boxes at work (the only reason my desktop hasn't changed is 
inertia - its been up 200days which is when I last got a new PC), but 
everything at home is now 8.0.  I've not been happy with previous .0 
releases (and even the .1 releases) from RedHat, but 8.0 is quite the 
exception for me.  The only small gripe I have with 8.0 is the default 
window manager is a lot less (easily?) configurable than previous ones.

RH 7.3 has the version of gcc that people don't like and isn't recommended 
for compiling kernels...

What issues do people have with RH8.0?

Regards,

Robert
