I did. I have a Logitech Mouseman and it didn't work either (thus x
couldn't start) when I installed 7.2 by first *deleting* 7.1. What I did
was, install 7.1 from the old iso, * upgrade * it using the new iso (it
somehow worked). I thought the problem should be about the 7.2 cds.
Then I tried to compile my kernel by gcc3+ athlon optimizations. Though
I carefully added everything that might cause my mouse not to work, the
problem reappeared and that's how I gave up on the RedHat kernel.

Yet I am using the 2.4.14 kernel now. It works much smoother.
For the redhat+xfs kernel make xconfig didn't work and I couldn't get my
mouse recognized no matter what I tried. Now the 2.4.15 is out, I guess
you can do the same. I don't see a particular reason to stick to
RedHat kernel.
