I could write a whole essay about weird XFdrake moments. I don't know where to 
start. The one about clicking cancel to be able to choose monitor, or the one 
where selecting video card cancels your previous monitor selection, or when 
you're done doing an expert configuration and accidently click OK after 
returning to the main screen makes the configuration start all over, or the 
black testing screen. I could go on.

Is Mandrake aware of the oddities in XFdrake? Is a major overhaul planned? It's 
a crucial application to make Linux-Mandrake user friendly, but in its current 
state it doesn't add to the friendlyness, unfortunately.

I know little about how XFdrake looks under the hood, but perhaps a complete 
rewrite is the solution? Maybe even as module compatible with KDE's Control 
Center. *wishing* :)
