I downloaded and installed beta 3 from iso yesterday and I have a few
comments.
The installation went very smoothly - no problems at all. I thought that the
new feature of having someone automatically logged on when booting was good
for people used to Windows but new to Linux. Of course I disabled that. :)
The whole fit and trim looks very nice. Kudos to the developers!
I do have a few problems though:
- Webmin doesn't seem to work. The service is started but I can't connect.
- Linuxconf doesn't run from DrakConf. Running Linuxconf from a command line
produces the error: Incompatible module
/usr/lib/linuxconf/modules/pppoe.so.1.18.0 get a new one or recompile it
against a recent linuxconf-devel package. Expect API revision 16, got 15.
Linuxconf runs, but as soon as I try to do something, such as configure DNS
Linuxconf crashes and the following messages appear in my terminal:
Error messager from readmin :X Error of failed request: BadWindows (invalid
Window parameter)
Error message from readmin : Major opcode of failed request: 61 (X_ClearArea)
Error message from readmin : Resource id in failed request: 0x0
Error message from readmin : Serial number of failed request: 6924
Error message from readmin : Current serial number in output stream: 7437
I downloaded the SRPM of Linuxconf, compiled and installed it but it didn't
make any difference.
- Launching Kmail from the menu (both KDE and Gnome) brings up the Compose
New Message window instead of the Application.
As I find other issues I will send them in...
