Hi, I've been facing a weird problem the last days, as I changed my distribution to mandrake 10.1. After installed freevo using urpmi, and launched it, I couldn’t see any images thumbnails or even folders I had before (was installed on knoppix).
After some debugging around, I found out that it was a PIL problem, described in this page: http://effbot.org/zone/pil-imaging-not-installed.htm To get it to work, I had to downgrade the python-imaging package on Mandrake (was mdk release #6). I downloaded the release #3 (python-imaging-1.1.4-3mdk) which can be found in the main RPMS tree of the mandrake 10.0 version and works like a charm. Here the commands (as root): (Example with a German mirror of mandrake, for an i586 install) # urpme python-imaging # curl ftp://ftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/mandrakelinux/official/10.0/i586/Mandrake /RPMS/python-imaging-1.1.4-3mdk.i586.rpm -o python-imaging-1.1.4-3mdk.i586.rpm # urmpi python-imaging-1.1.4-3mdk.i586.rpm So it will be a good idea to warn this into the new wiki with "Mandrake install method", because it looks like a general Mandrake 10.1 problem.
