    I seem to be having many problems with this release (2.6.1-1.65). One
    my home computer, after upgrading, my mouse wouldn't work and my sound
    card could not be found on startup. So I did a new "everything"
    installation. The mouse problem went away but I get an error message
    saying that a device couldn't be found. According to sndconfig, I must
    be using a kernel with modular sound. This problem occurs on every
    computer I've installed it on.

    I tried to run up2date. I had to uncheck balsa and epiphany. It also
    said that there was a dependency problem with redhat-lsb, but this
    package was not present in the list, so I could not uncheck it. I
    removed teh redhat-lsb package, but that didn't help. Next, I tried
    updating only the kernel. It took over an hour, using up2date. When
    rebooting with the new kernel, X wouldn't even start because it can't
    find the mouse.

    I've exhausted all means of updating packages: apt, yum, synaptic,
    up2date. This is the worst build of Red Hat / Fedora Linux I've ever
    used. I'm afraid I'll have to reinstall my previous version.
