Hi folks,
I've just joined the list and have been lurking for the last week just to
get a feel for the list.
I emphathise with Richard but I don't think the list is worthless. I'm still
searching for a list that I can relate to. I'm still hoping I can get some
help from this list. I'll do help others with what I know.
I've just upgraded form Mandrake 6.1 to Mandrake 7.0 and have been playing
around with it for the last week.
One thing I noticed that is missing is the Screen power management system.
Excuse me but I don't know the exect term for it. In KDE there was a desktop
setting that would put my monitor into power-saving standby mode. With MDK
7.0 this feature is no longer installed by default. I don't like using the
screensavers because essentially my monitor is still on. I would appreciate
it if someone can tell me which package I should install and how to get that
feature back again. Otherwise I'm considering going back to MDK 6.1 and just
upgrading the packages that I need.
If anyone is interested, I'm trying to see if I can make my PC completely
Windows free. I think with MDK 7.1 I might be there.
TIA

Subject: [newbie] Worthless email list
It is sad that such a good product has such a worthless mailing list.
I posted a serious install error a few days ago asking for help. I
got one response and it was only a smart remark about the error
message.
I had hoped that this list was serious about helping solve problems,
but I was obviously wrong.
