Hi,

I just registered to this mailing list in order to give you some feedback on 
RC1 : Despite the few translation issues that I noticed and that I will 
immediatly report on cooker-i18n, here's what I found :
- Most important bug : when KDE launched for the first time after I installed 
the system, I didn't have the wheel support for my mouse. I went to Mandrake 
configuration center and selected "standard Ps/2 mouse with wheel". When I 
applied the changes, I wasn't able to use my mouse anymore, the cursor went 
in the upper right corner and stayed here. I had to kill the X server. When 
the server restarted, everything was fine and I had the wheel working. A bit 
weird nevertheless that I had to kill X.
- Also, when I first configured the network during installation. I only put 
one DNS server. No luck, this one wasn't responding... I went to Mdk Control 
center in order to add another DNS server. I didn't find how to add a DNS 
server and I had to reconfigure the network entirely to be able to enter 
another DNS server. Did I miss something ? Anyway, it's not very important...
- Another issue, more important, is when I had to enter the root password 
during installation : I had chosen "french/France" at the first installation 
screen. No luck my keyboard is a QWERTY one. I didn't realize when I entered 
my root password that I was actually with a AZERTY keymap. Hopefully, when I 
realized that my password was bad the first time I tried to log as root, I 
understood what happened but it wasn't obvious at all ! It might be confusing 
! You should put a warning about this when entering the root passwd.
- Finally, is it normal that krootwarning stays so long in my KDE taskbar at 
startup ? I've got a Duron 800/512 Mo and it stays for smth like 20 seconds 
in my taskbar.

That's all folks, besides that, congratulations for your work ! I was just 
amazed by this Mdk 8.2 RC1 ! Keep up the good work...
