Dear cPanel,

Is it possible to remove the :
"
Important Notice: Incompatible versions of Mysql 4.0.x and NPTL based systems.
If you are running a newer linux
"
etc lines if you don't run 4.0.x ?

First do a check if the system had NPTL and 4.0.x and then anounce it on those systems. Not all systems.

Danny.

I get the same thing:

Important Notice: Incompatible versions of Mysql 4.0.x and NPTL based systems.
If you are running a newer linux system which is NPTL based (CentOS 4, Fedora 3+, RHE 4, etc) and are having problems with MySQL 4.0.x (versions later then 4.0.23*), we recommend upgrading to MySQL 4.1.x as we have determined that there are compatibility issues on these platforms. You can easily upgrade to 4.1.x by changing the Mysql Version in Tweak Settings
If you are worried about compatibility with MySQL 4.0, be sure to check the box labeled: Use old style (4.0) passwords with mySQL 4.1. in Tweak Settings.
If you are unsure if your system is NPTL based, run getconf GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION at the command line and see if it displays NPTL.
* 4.0.23 does not have any known issues, but is subject to security vulnerabilities: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-1516, http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-1517

Severity:
I run getconf GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION and it returns NPTL 2.4. I'm running on Fedora Core 5.

How do I get rid of it?

Go on, have a guess
The warning notice system that cPanel uses is simply a web page on their site displaying within WHM, it's not a script that determines what server its running on - that's for you to understand as the server administrator.
