If we can't ensure that X will come up, why should newbies use > Mandrake over Debian? I agree on this point in the case you describe. I was just answering about THIS user in particular. BTW, i'm not sure if we should provide such -finger in the nose- practice that far : at the end, this is the kind of plus value one should expect from club membership and/or pack ?
