I've installed rh 9 linux last night, and so far all went well... i've installed pretty much everything i needed... all but an avi/divx player.
i've tried xine, mplayer and i can't even remember what else... but all seem to claim there's a problem with my X11.
although i was sure i've installed it (and checked to make sure, and i did) i tried to install again, which didn't really help.
it occured to me that it might have something to do with my video card, which wasn't recognized by rh when i installed it (SiS 661 onboard card), so i tried to install the driver from winischhofer.at
