And how are people supposed to use it if it's not visible??? > there're http and text frontends for most important tools. > > this is always the same debat as: > - rpm vs urpmi vs rpmdrake/MandrakeUpdate > - kde vs icewm/wm/... > - links-graphic vs mozilla > - ... Mutt: Start->Networking->Mail->Mutt Links:Start->Networking->WWW->links drakxconf????? How about: Start->Configuration->Mandrake Tools (low resolution) Of course, if you could use it without a mouse (so one could configure a mouse when the mouse isn't working!) that would be much better ... How difficult would it be to make drakxconf take keyboard input (probably easier than drakconf).
