Don't feel bad. Took me forever to get the KDE updates (and others) for 7.2.
Wouldn't find the mirrors etc. I finally got everything I needed though.

Subject: [newbie] Mandrake update: fetching of mirror list failed
Hi,
I was trying to update my Linux 7.1 using the Mandrake Update program
and
I got the message:
fetching of mirror list failed.
Then it just dumped me out of the program. I can ftp to places ok but my
netscape needs
a http proxy in order to work. How can I fix this problem?
Can I simply download the free installation from mandrake the two disks and
upgrade that
way? or will there be a lot of conflicts?
Thank you inadvance,
Sincerely,
Trevor J. Stocki
