I saw this in Mandrake Club forum today http://www.mandrakeclub.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Splatt_Forum&file=viewtopic&topic=24377&forum=11
It is a script to automatically configure a Mandrake 10.0 installation and does the following functions. "Removes all RPM sources Sets RPM sources for Community or Official Installs libfreetype with bytecode interpreter enabled (plf) (it is not patented in Slovenia) Installs mscorefonts from a legal source Installs a nice KDE theme called MPN Installs Flash plugin Preloads OpenOffice.org when KDE starts Installs libraries for DVD Installs Real player alpha version Updates RPM sources Installs updates Installs kernel with latest security updates Installs latest versions of installed packages" It could be useful if someone has just done a new installation. Looking at the script it tests to find the fastest update mirror, so hopefully it will pick a better mirror than most newbies do by guesswork. I have not tried it myself as all my machines are fully configured. If anyone tries it plz let the author know if it worked. BTW: To save typing that long command, highlight text in your browser to copy, press mouse wheel to paste. derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
