any idea if the downloadable isos can still break cdroms or
if they have a fixed version?



Well first of all it's the LG drives, not Mandrake that needs fixin. Those with LG (or rebadged drives which are actually LG's) should up date their firmware ... even if they don't install Mdk 9.2, even if they're confirmed Windoze users. The drives should not be used as is.


To answer your question tho, The iso's on the mirrors are the same ones released to club members, the same ones that are sold. They can render a buggy LG CDrom as useless. The fix is to fix the LG's. http://us.lgservice.com/ click on 'Device Drivers', then 'Cdrom'.


I saw the fix and everything ... but still I don't believe it's a nice thing to leave software that does that like that .. might make people (me too) think that mandrake stuff isn't all that great ... which is not a nice thing :)
