Hi!
Well, I accidently erased my extented patrition and
wiped my debian install, so I downloaded Mandrake 9.0 (Dolphin) and DAMN, I am
impressed.
kde 3.0.3, koffice 1.2 final, openoffice 1.1,
mozilla 1.1, gnome 2, evolution 1.0.8, kernel 2.4.19 with ext2/3 acl,
crypto and lpp patches, gcc3.2, X 4.2.1 and many other nifty features.
I even installed MPlayer from rh7.3 rpms and it worked (after I added libpng
1.0.14 witch was not included).
The most cool stuff is the ability to boot text in
1024x768 frame-buffer mode and hardware detection. X actually detected that my
ATI card had TVOut and included an option in Lilo to boot into TV
mode.
Now I know all of this can be done in Debian (witch
I did, until it got wiped out) or any other distro for that matter, but it still
so cool to get it without any hassle or tweaking and I am a very lazy person
:)
Just had to share my experience with ya
all.
P.S I havn't noticed any bugs whatsoever.
Kewl.
