Jim answered your question on browser preference settings, I'll tackle this.  
PAN 0.12+ uses GTK2, not the GTK/Gnome 1 that PAN 0.11- used.  You can't run 
the newer PAN until GTK2 is properly installed (Gnome itself is no longer 
required).  GTK2 does come with the newer distribs, if you are unable to 
successfully chase down all the dependencies (three primary pieces, each with 
its own dependencies) for installing it on older distribs.

I'm on Mandrake, here, and simply used urpmi.add to add new Mandrake 
distribution mirrors, including Cooker/beta mirrors, and now run urpmi.update 
and urpmi --auto-select several times a week to keep up-to-date on the latest 
beta products.  I am running KDE3.1RC3, from Cooker, now, and expect the new 
RC5 binaries to be up likely tomorrow, so it (and therefore I) stays pretty 
current.  Anyway, I originally installed Mdk 8.1 with the old Gnome/GTK as 
well, but updated thru urpmi and Cooker, to get the full GTK/Gnome 2 install.  
Of course, I did my original d/l and burn of all three Mdk 8.1 CDs over DSL, 
and now have a cable modem, so the bandwidth isn't an issue here, but that's 
certainly MY easiest way to keep updated.  I assume Red Hat has something 
similar to urpmi to automatically update its install?  You may, of course, 
have to point it at current version mirrors, as I had to do with urpmi, but 
the rest was fairly easy.
