This behaviour does not arise directly after the RH 7.1 installation, but
when replacing the 2.4.2 Kernel by the actual Vanilla Kernel 2.4.4, then 
linuxconf-1.24r2-10 hangs up when selecting the described function.

Now, I installed linuxconf-1.25r6-1 (from 
http://www.solucorp.qc.ca/linuxconf/), and the problem disappeared, no more
hangups.

Comment 2 Brent Fox 2002-06-05 16:18:38 UTC
Closing because we don't ship linuxconf anymore
