Minor thing I noticed this afternoon (if it's been changed and I didn't
see, sorry) - in the title bar of its window, drakconf still identifies
itself as running under Mandrake 8.3, not 9.0.

another drakconf issue - when you ask for a list of hardware, harddrake2
doesn't embed itself into the drakconf window as harddrake (iirc) did
under 8.2 - it pops up in a separate window and the drakconf window
carries on displaying the sand timer, which is a bit ugly.

another thing - since 8.2 on my box several mdk graphical utilities,
notably harddrake (inc harddrake2) and drakconf have had an irritating
bug - running them "locks" the cursor as the 'busy' clock when it's not
being something else (it'll change to, say, a text insertion icon fine,
but when it should just be a standard pointer, it's a clock instead).
anyone else seeing this?

one last thing - since i updated to cooker, um, maybe a month or so ago
now, rpmdrake has consistently quit out with a segmentation error every
time it finishes updating the packages list (e.g. after installing a new
package, removing one, or updating the sources). the list is updated
fine and it's there if i re-run rpmdrake instantly, it's just that the
crashing is a bit irritating. anyone else got this?

oh, and today i upgraded some kde packages after a long time of them
being on my skip.list (i run gnome2, just have kde installed 'just in
case', and the daily 100mb downloads for tiny kdelibs fixes were
annoying me :). i upgraded kdebase plus its subsidiary packages, i
forget the names and don't have my mandrake box on atm.) because they
were needed for new vorbis to install properly. next time i logged in (i
use GDM2, session is set to 'last' by default) KDE started instead of
GNOME. fixed easily just by logging out and selecting GNOME from the
session menu, but it was a bit surprising...
