Well, it took about 4-1/2 days via BitTorrent, but the download of the 5 PowerPack discs for 10 Community finally finished earlier this evening, so they're burnt and installed (did an upgrade rather than fresh install ... yeah, I know, I can hear you already ;-)
Anyway, on a positive note, now that my BT download is done and the new Mandrake version in place, /NOW/ I'm able to install the bittorrentshadows client and have my BT GUI. (and, yes, I've got the two .iso sets up and available via BT now)... That went without a hitch despite its refusal to install earlier. So, /two/ annoying things ... maybe just one, but possibly two. First, some fonts seem a little odd ... just slightly off, like the kerning is set incorrectly. My eyesight's not so hot these days, so it's hard for me to define exactly what's going on with them, just that they're "off" a bit. I suppose I can play with those a bit. The other thing is that the menuing in the new KDE is different ... I've heard of others losing their menus and having to do an update-menus -v from konsole, but mine are there, just rearranged (which I expected to an extent, but some things seem rather odd, such as only Editors showing under Applications, and just WWW under Networking. Some of the changes seem to be for the better (more intuitive), and others just seem odd to me. Is my menuing fubar'ed, or do I just need to get used to the new arrangement in the updated KDE? Anyway, except for a little annoyance or two, so far everything seems to have gone well with the upgrade from 9.2 download to 10.0 community/powerpack. -- Chuck Mattsen ... [EMAIL PROTECTED] ...
