Hi CCLers
 I hope to get some advice from you guys, I'm trying to update my Kernel,
 to correct the NAN problem with heavy jobs in 2.2.14-5 kernel.
 When I try to rpm the kernel I get this anoying message:
 # rpm -i kernel-smp-2.2.17-14.i386.rpm
 error: failed dependencies:
 rpmlib(VersionedDependencies) <= 3.0.3-1 is needed by
 kernel-smp-2.2.17-14
 I haven't been able to update RPM package because it sends me a lot of
 this errors:
 file /bin/rpm from install of rpm-3.0.5-9.6x conflicts with file from
 package rpm-3.0.4-
 Can anybody help me figure it out what is the problem??
 Would RH7.0 be a better choice than updataing the kernel ??, any
 experience with gaussian, gamess, or nwchem on RH7.0 ???
 I will Thank you a lot !
 Max
