That's the beauty of Linux. People who make distributions are free to
target specific audiences. Mandrake started out targeting 586+
processors, and the peripherals one would reasonably expect for that
class of machine.
Red Hat typically targets cutting-edge folks who want the latest and

I'm with you, Hoyt, re: the 486 version of Mandrake. There's still a
lot of legacy hardware out there that could use the Mandrake "ease of
use" touch with optimized performance. They'd probably have to ditch X
and go with some kind of SVGA solution (or maybe port one of the PDA

Many thanks to bascule and J.P. for ferreting out the details of mapping
common tasks to the keyboard. I've grown seriously tired of switching
between devices, and the mapping details are just the ticket.
Thanks, folks.

Hate to be a doomsayer, but my brother has the power switch problem with
his motherboard. It works in windoze, but not Linux. His docs say it's
a motherboard designed specifically for windoze. It successfully boots
either OS, though.
In your case, it could be bios settings. Have you

For an "average" tune (roughly 4-6M) I'd guesstimate around 5-8 seconds.
It was my live jam tunes that run 15-20M that I kept screwing up.

to watching the progress bar on the Rio.

Tools for loading them with music are pretty sparse. I have a Rio 600,

I just spent a lot of time getting a four port Dolphin serial card set

When I log in via a terminal then exit, I get the message:
