Don, I beg to differ! I see nothing in these pages to
indicate they have been changed at all by Mandrake. Being
one of the rare breed who actually read manuals, I've
noticed there is quite a difference 'tween RedHat 5.2 and
Mandrake 5.3. Sussing out the diff's has been quite
entertaining. Good thing I have lots of time on my hands.

Mandrake does have documentation on the CD. You have to dive
into Mandrake/en/userguid to get started, since the
index.html file in /Mandrake is BLANK. And then there are
the HOW-to's, brought to you by the ad-hoc geek committee.
