I've got an iBook2.rev2 as well. I tried 8.2 with the same results. I'd welcome Mandrake on my iBook because I use it on my main machine. To Wolfgang (if you want "Linux now"), and to the developpers if you're looking for a solution: Yellow Dog Linux release 2.3 works perfectly on the iBook (but you have to download and install a few "new" rpms to get Xfree running fine. I am not able to get any informations out of this (except they upgraded the kernel) but developpers may. Thierry -- "I heard if you play the Windows XP CD backwards, you get a satanic message."
