Very nice overall, I upgraded from ver 8b3, used iso images

- After the install xinetd would not start.  I had to reinstall xinetd
package, /usr/sbin/xinetd file was missing when querying package, ok
after that.
- I selected expert mode, all package categories.  After install using
drakboot selecting Aurora traditional frame buffer would result in a
setup with no Aurora, package Aurora-Monitor-Traditional-WsLib was not
installed and after installing it, it worked fine.
- Again in drakboot, if I manually inserted user root for autologin, X
starts up with no apps or window manager of choice, not sure why?  I
just worked around it using ~/.xinetrc
- fs config file did not add unscaled to some font dirs resulting in
uglyfied fonts in kde, I guess cause they were not included in the
official distro, ( is that a feature?)

Other minor details (most probably other oss projects issues, all 8b3
issues as well)

- gtv, xmms (smpeg) needs mpegs played in double size for video to
display.
- In gnome panel applet mixer and mini-commander - graphics don't render
right (voodoo3)
- Voodoo 3 h/w accel goes slow with E window manager, tested with
tuxracer and others.

My laptop upgrade is next (Dell Inspiron 3800) which has 7.2

Thank you for the great product, you all deserve a vacation :)
