[PlanetCCRMA] X wierdness

Hello again,
After a while without updates I installed RH9 + the Planet on my Linux
box today. I downloaded the iso's at school and then brought them home
and reinstalled from scratch. Everything seems to work with the
standard Red Hat kernel, but when I get some serious weirdness when I
try to run X with the Planet kernel. Basically, X tries to start up,
but with some bizarre screen artifacts, and then farts and dies. It
will do this three or four times before it asks if I want to try to
run the X configuration program. I then run the program, and the same
thing more or less happens. X runs fine with a stock kernel; I haven't
tried the RH + capability kernel yet.
My setup: Athlon (T-Bird), VIA chipset, S3 Trio video card (AGP), 384
MB RAM.
I was trying to run the 2.4.21-1 kernel.
Thanks in advance,
dgm
