(Segmentation fault) I downloaded + installed new fedora updates, then changed the font hinting and I got the above error.

Changed font hinting to full Additional info:
My setup is entire install of Fedora Core 1. Selected and downloaded all available updates (several tries; network congestion). Downloads verified ok. GUI update applet disappears at start of install phase. Tried selecting individual update (selected 4, then 1) with same result (applet crash/disappear). Ran "up2date -u -v" from command line with "segmentation fault" during install phase at both init 5 and init 3. No luck at all so far. Tried "yum update" from command line. Download ok (2 or 3 tries; congestion). Install hung after 1st update. Reboot & retry. All updates installed. In short, had no luck except "segmentation fault" from rhnupdate applet & up2date. "yum update" worked well eventually as a workaround (after minor problems).
Fedora Core 1 is maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thanks! NOTE: Fedora Core 1 is reaching the final end of support even by the Legacy project. After Fedora Core 6 Test 2 is released (currently scheduled for July 26th), there will be no more security updates for FC1. Please use these next two weeks to upgrade any remaining FC1 systems to a current release.
Closed per above message and lack of response. Note that FC1 and FC2 are not even supported by Fedora Legacy anymore. Also note that rhn-applet is deprecated and not included in the non-Legacy FC versions (5 and 6).
