Hi,
i finally shifted to mandrake 9.0..tried redhat 8.0...always
used
RH but unfortunately it failed take my vote for it...although i
rate
its gui as the best available but thats not the only feature of
linux atleast.there is no "Kpackage" so it will give you hell lot
of trouble..while mandrake uses "Alsa"(advanced sound
architecture) by default....redhat dont have it so you have to
download it and install...but in the process X gave me trouble
....so i had to remove it (the /etc/modules.conf config ) and
restore the original one....there is no xine..and the worst of all
the menus are terrible .... it takes long to get settled with RH
menu....but when you do so you will feel uncomfortable with menus
in other disto....the mozilla version is not upto date....there is
not shortcut to console by dafault thats bad....the "XCDRoast" is
not the intended as its not stable....so give a good look before
burining cds! i hoped RH should have tested the versions as giving
unstable/broken ones wont help....one may feel i am very much
critical about RH ..but i have no other option as its bad to see
your favourite distro is doing bad...
so installed mandrake....running cool....alsa...perfect....
watch out the table tennis game..i loved it ...
got few small problems ...please offer help-
a. while in GDM i preferred graphical greetings it does not do
that
i get standard greetings....any solutions?.
b. more simpler....i was looking for servies to stop and
initiate
few servies while my system boots up...but i am not getting
where is it?..kinda funny but i need it.....help me out.
what you ppl think,
i guess i will go for debian next....
saw it in siddarthada's machine looked good...
and 8 cds i cant wait
bye
anindya
