Well I am not sure on RH9 ... the last version of RH I used was 8 and
it had problems with X acting wierd (amongst other things).  I have
since switched to SuSE 8.2 and am happy again.  I am not sure if 9 is
more stable than 8.  I absolutely do NOT like what RH did with the
GUI interface!!!!!!  I have also found many things to love about
SuSE.  

I am planning on putting a box together with Lycoris later this fall
for my kids.  I love most of Lycoris.  It just needs OpenOffice
instead of KOffice for it's default office suite (you can buy it from
them for $40) and update to KDE 3.x.  Maybe I just need to come out
with Rusty Linux ;-)
