---------------------------
Been there, done that! It segfaulted. I also tried adding libnewt.40
from an alienized .rpm which seems to cure the problem, then I tried to
run sndconfig, it segfaulted again. I believe that RH must have a
glibc2.1 dependency in version 6 similar to potato. I will try an older
version. I am running an almost pure slink installation (production
server system) so I do not yet want to upgrade to potato. Any other
advice would be appreciated.
