Comment 3 Mike A. Harris 2004-01-13 16:50:49 UTC

Additional note:  Red Hat Linux 8.0 and all earlier OS releases
are no longer supported by Red Hat.  Before reporting bugs in
these older OS releases, please confirm wether the bug is still
present in currently supported OS releases.  In this case it is
still present however, so it will be addressed in a future OS
release, and possibly in errata for currently supported OS releases.

Comment 4 Red Hat Bugzilla 2006-02-21 19:00:29 UTC
