In an attempt to get out some of my grevences with an overall damn good distro, I lay 
them all out and see what everyone thinks of them.


RpmDrake family: noted in past post


Note-I have been tring to use a Linksys WPC-11 wireless card.
It is recongized by cardmgr after I added a entry for in pcmcia.conf(forget actual 
file name).

HardDrake: Doen't try to check pcmcia cards, should atleast show info on card and the 
fact that it's unsupported. 
Devices can not be configured. This makes them useless until harddrake is updated.In 
the case of my wireless card, I could just tell harddrake which driver to use inorder 
to setup the device correctly.

MouseDrake(?):Should be able to have two(atleat) or more mouse-like configured at a 
time. This especially frutsataing on my laptop. My setup is a wheel USB and a built-in 
to my laptop is a glide style mouse. As it works now only one can work at a time 
depend on if the USB mouse was plugged in when I started up the machine. If I happend 
to config a mouse, then only the configed one works unless I mess with the gpm deamon 
and config file. There should be a way to configure two or more mouse like 
devices(drawing tablets, other pointing devices) to work simitaniously if available. I 
know gpm can easily handle multiple devices.

Network setup:I have been unable to get my detected wireless card to be setup by 
Drakconnect a eth1. It seems to pick up the card after told look for a (orinoco_cs 
based) wireless NIC. It then setup up my primary NIC wireless. 

I thought the was going to be some sort of feedback. Either for new devices and/or 
other items?

I'd be happy to help out with fixing these problems but I need some direction on how 
the apps are setup.
