Well, I'm just saying that it is not entirely intuitive to install
packages from the CDROM using rpmdrake (or the other package software).
I tried adding the CDROM location but can't seem to make the available
packages on the CD-ROM appear in the tree.
I'm also confused by the fact that DrakConf links kpackage instead of
rpmdrake. Are they or aren't they the same thing?
Personnally, I usually do this at the command-line, but it is not
really something acceptable for some of my friends - so I'm trying to
find out about the GUI way.

Your answer is confusing! Do you mean that we will only see menu
reflecting what's actually installed in 7.1?

Hmmm... Again, I'm confused: how is the quantity of apps related to the
facts that some items in the menu are missing icons or are not actually
installed?

Hmmm... So should I start reporting bugs/wishlist stuff to that bug
tracking system instead of polluting the mailing list? There doesn't
seem to be any variable related to which version the user has (RedHat
keeps track of rawhide beta bugs thru their bug tracking system).

Funny guy, hey! Just something I thought for new users who don't
usually read the documentation and can't know they have to resize it to
see the whole information. Isn't there a way to specify a larger
initial window size? Anyway, I know it's an extremely minor thing -
just nitpicking so that the next version of Mandrake is perfect ;-).

Well... KDE menus of course...
bye bye, I have to download oxygen-3 now ;-),
