I can't get Mandrake 7.0 to recognize my 3c509 NIC. RedHat and
OpenLinux both work with no problems but when I switched to Mandrake 7.0
it can't find it. I had problems with Mandrake 6.1 too. I got it to
work with that version but it wouldn't get an IP from my DHCP server at
startup even though I could do it manualy after I logged in.
A few other things I noticed that were kind of weird is that in your
install program it has an option for a USB mouse which I have but when
you try and select it it says that it failed and then screwes the entire
install proceedure up. Also I'm not sure if it's ment to be this way
but if you choose Custom Install and then select server it will only
install the base X system no matter what other window managers you
choose during setup.
Oh, and does Lothar do anything right now?? I run it and it asks if I
want to detect ISA devices and no matter if I choose yes or no the
status bar at the bottom runs through a couple of times and then quits.
Despite a few bugs it looks great!
Keep up the good work!
