I was offered to enter my mandrakeclub information, but was also told that I need to log in as root in order for that information to be added to my urpmi setup. Fair enough, only root can modify the urpmi setup, but: 1) We don't want to encourage users to log into X as root. We can, however, prompt them for the root password. 2) With mdkkdm, which is the default dm now, there is no way for users to log into X as root! In other words, in the default setup, the mandrakeclub registration dialog cannot achieve its goal due to lack of root priviledges!
