But so far I can't get it to work on Mandrake. I grabbed an RPM from a
contrib site (?) when you announced the availability of this but so far
haven't been able to get it to run. I think I need a better
/etc/apt/sources.list file that is tailored to Mandrake & Mandrake cooker.
The one that is provided now has a couple of ftp sites in Brazil and won't
connect to them because of some key ring problems.
Anyone else using this on Mandrake?
