I've been meaning to upgrade it, but my box started out as FC 2, I 
think, and the repositories are getting thin on the ground; by now most 
rpms are franken-upgraded to a mis-mash of half installed from source, 
half installed from rpms others have rolled up, and half are just out of 
date.

One of these days I'll just do a clean re-install, but gawd, that's a 
pain I'd just as well put off indefinitely. ugh.

I'll see if I can't coerce GTK2 to install on the machine.
