It also says 'updates released' in every line of the second group.
When I run
'yum update'
it does not update these packages (it updated few others
though). I do not quite follow why. Anyway I could not find
any newer version.
What do you think about trying to install X11R6.9 (7.0)?
Best,
Monika

Have you updated the xorg installation? The initial one included with
the install discs had some serious problems that were fixed later on.
