Title: From my personal experience RH7.2 owns 7.3
Post by: Bazoukas on 24 August 2002, 14:22
-With 7.3 full install never finished because anaconda gave me a bug report with packages containing python files.
   -KDE at times was slow as hell. Maybe it was the KDE version that had the memory leak problem.
   -Install was much slower
   -It seemed to be a bit slow on loading apps.


  7.2 on the other hand took about 20 minutes to do a full install.
  From what I can tell it runs faster.


  Now I just need to update my kernel, install the latest version of KDE and Gnome, and I use the CDROMS from 7.3 for apps that 7.2 doesnt have.

Hmmm, weird.  I've installed just as many 7.3 installs as 7.2 and have never had a problem with either. And I don't have to upgrade KDE on the 7.3 installs.  Are you sure your CDs aren't damaged?

  I know what you mean by weird. I never saw in Forums people saying they have these problems.
  I have a device that eliminates scratches and all that. But still the same problem.
  Maybe the CDs were defective from the factory or something.
  But updating my kernel wouldnt that mean I will basicaly be running 7.3?

i have never had that happen to me when i am installing re hat 7.3(and i have done it alot). i will say that when you do a full install it does take sometime though. and i personaslly have had more problems with 7.2 then 7.3

Oh, absolutely not the same... KDE 3.0 is a huge upgrade from 2.2.  Every package on the system would be a newer version than what is on 7.2.  But KDE is probably the single biggest difference in my book.  It also includes Evolution, I don't believe 7.2 did that.
