I went to install Mandrake 8.0 on a thinkpad I had laying arround, before
upgrading my home machine, and hit a pretty big wall.
The trackpoint on the thinkpad is not detected, and when I try to point it
at busmouse 3 button, I get a perl error about atibm device unkown. (Or
something close to that). I can get arround most of the gtk stuff fine with
keyboard strokes, except Diskdrake, so I this is going no where.
Any way arround this? Will we be seeing an updated installer? I have been
a very big Mandrake fan for a couple years, as the install was always
slicker then RedHat, and things like Xemacs and Afterstep were shipped with
the distribution at up to date versions. Pretty bummed I can't use Mandrake
8.0.
