ET said: the real question (to me) is how would a newbie ever find this list anymore?
can anyone point me to a link that you can follow from any Mand-ex start or first page (like the one that comes up in a browser when you first start the browser or mandriva.com or mandrivalinux.org(etc)) that would link to a signup or other link leading you here? all I have found in the past was a link saying 'you better' sign up for the mandrivaexpert paid services. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------- ... I'm a very new newbie (on the list since last March) ... listening in on this discussion, decided to join the Expert list to see what it looks like ... took me an hour and a half !!! ... absolutely no luck starting at mandriva, finally looked at some old emails, found the WIKI link, that did the trick ... but now I see what you guys have been talking about, Mandriva is totally unfriendly to unpayed-for lists !!! ... I have played around with SUSE and Kubuntu, still like Mandriva alot more, but mandriva is truly shooting themselves in the foot running you guys off like this .... ... Expert list is excellent though, lot of good stuff so far that I more-or-less understand ...
