Wow I guess Mandrake has really lost sight of what Linux is. I have been
running 7.2 for about two weeks and have lost my Gnome desktop, tried several
thing to recover that to no avail. I cannot print anymore Cups seems to be
hosed and I cannot install the update because it is unsigned?(whatever). KDE2
seems to slow dramaticallyu the longer it is open. If I log out of a window
Manager Xserver dies and I am dropped to run level 3, maybe thats normal I
don't know. I wrote to Mandrake about all this and maybe releasing a stable
version rather than competeing with RedHat for the highest version number.
Their response and I qoute "We are working on a six month version and 8.0 is
scheduled for April." Perhaps I should go back to Debian. Being a newbie as I
am it is better running RH or LM as most literature is written for these
platforms.
