I only removed the kernel proper (using pirut), not kernel-devel nor kernel-headers packages (assuming they have little relevance to the problem at hand), and dl'd the 2.6.22.1-27 kernel again. When installed and rebooted, the problems persist just like before. Maybe it's my hardware but it has worked with every kernel since FC4 as I told earlier. Guess I'll stick to 2.6.21-1.3228.fc7 kernel for now. > As some stated earlier, if your system has a kernel that does not work > correctly and you are booted into the previous working kernel, the > kernel that you are using will stay intact.
