Thanks, Brice I have a sync of BenH's 2.4 kernel that's about 10 days old. If you are interested I'll put it up on our anon ftp site.

Sadly, given that there are problems with MandrakeUpdate (lack of archetecture path in the updates dir path). It's a know problem with primary server. Problem is currently same with Intel version. It should be solved soon. Among other little things. Which ones? Please give us feedback or we will not be able to fix them. If you can, please report bugs here: https://qa.mandrakesoft.com/. If you can't, report them here. However, IMHO it's still the best PPC distribution out there. Thanks :-) -- MandrakeSofthttp://www.mandrakesoft.com Paris, FRANCE --David
