I have tried to install Mandrake Linux 9.1 beta 3 in three differents types of computers with differents Via chipsets, but I am getting more than 20 errors
after the installation of the first disk, and specially when the second cd start
to install the office programs, I have 'yes' to continue with the installation, I did not
have that kind of problem with beta 1, and 2. The other problem that I have is
that it look that it has configured the video card, but when it reboot again the
computer freeze and then I am forced to reset the computer and then I am able
to login, and then it does not want to configure the Lan card, in my main computer
I have an on board Brodcam 10/100 it detected as eth0 but then I am unable to
go in the internet, I installed a second Realtek Lan Card but it does not detect this
one that I know that the drivers are more popular than Broadcam. After all I would
like to tell that it is the most beatiful and colorfull distro that Mandrake has designed
it can be used by itself for my application, there is not need to have MS Windows
dual boot, with all the defects it looks very nice. I had also problem with the
installation of the printer, at the beginning I get a red circle and it won boot, I did
reinstalled again without printer, but when I try to detect the printer, it freeze the
computer. Have you tried to resolve these bugs for the final version or Beta 4?
The times when I have been able to go in the internet the connection is fast and
it works faster than prior versions. I would like to know why the second disk is
making so many errors when it is installing the open office packages. Another
problem is that sometimes it does not want to recognize the third Cd, it is asking
for an international disk, I had to insert the cd several times in the cd rom and
then it start to install the packages. I think it is important to have more drivers
for the Viewsonic monitors since they are becoming very populars, I could not
find a drivers for my ( g90ft) but Redhat has drivers on RH 8.0 for a lot of View
sonic monitors and NEC you should take that into consideration, and the
new land cards that are coming out in the market specially Broadcam that is
pre-installed in the Asus and Supermicro motherboards
