Hey Folks... This is Beta Software ... So if you install it, expect to run
into some Problems. I installed these all on a Mandrake-7.1 Based System,
updated Kernel, PAM-Subsystem, all the Udpates, and XFree86-4.0.1 from Cooker
and I have almost no problems. I had to fiddle around a little bit to find
out that the PAM-Structure is not totally compatible (so upgrade the pam
packages too).
So, instead of whining, find solutions. This way, you can help Mandrake to
improve what they already do - A Great Job !
If you don't have the knowledge to fiddle around with the System, stick to
the Officially released version.
