correction regarding the kernels:
I boot up into 2.6.9-1.11_FC2.  Can I continue with
this kernel or do I have to get the 521 kernel?  I
actually have three kernels on my system right now
(2.6.5_1.358, 9-1.6_FC2 (which does not boot up into
any graphics type environment) and 9-1.11_FC2?

Thanks,
George
