You're being totally unreasonable. If someone's got a monitor so crappy that they can't even run at 800x600, they use a different frontend to the draktools. That's part of the reason different frontends exist! The point isn't that every frontend is supported on every single machine, the point is that all machines are covered by at least one frontend, so nobody can bitch about their machine not being supported. Are you gonna whine and complain to us when you find Gnome and Evolution unusable on a P133 with 16MB RAM??? I sure hope not. Doesn't mean Mandrake doesn't support the machine, but you have to use tools more fit to it (IceWM and mutt maybe). __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
