I haven't had much trouble at all getting things initially installed.  It's
UPGRADING that drives me bonkers.  

I'm fighting now with the 0.30 release of GNOME.   Just difficult to figure
out what files I need.  Then I invariably run into dependency problems.   

Argh.  Very frustrating.  I like the release of GNOME that RH did on the
5.1 CD.  Very easy to install. :) 
 Why can't they do the same thing with subsequent releases???
