The installation instructions (and RPM packages) have been updated in 
the last couple of days. Can you possibly try installing again - you may 
need to remove the packages you have already installed, or at least 
upgrade rather than install the new packages. I would suggest a quick 
read of http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/rpminstall.html

If you have any more problems please bring them up on the list.

Andy
