Bonsoir Pierre. I've only experienced the odd kernel problem with rt kernels from planetccrma, and that is with FC2. I'd consider posting a bug report to. http://bugzilla.redhat.com/ You'll obviously have to provide as much info as possible. Meanwhile, I wouldn't be too bothered. Just continue to use the kernel that works ok. I use Apt as a package manager, and Apt keeps all kernels as default. Yum's default settings by contrast only keep 2 kernels. You can change this behaviour, by adding a line to /etc/yum.conf, as below. installonly_limit=0 (that's a zero, not an uppercase o) This will result in all kernels being retained. When you next get a kernel update, you can simply remove the kernel that don't work, using Yumex for instance, or in my case Synaptic. I think I'd post a bug report, if this is a repeatable problem. It may just be a problem that shows up on "your" laptop model/hardware, and perhaps the kernel guys would be interested in your feedback. All the best.
