Howdy.
I've just installed 10.1
I've not used MDK before, but have experience with Solaris and FreeBSD. I'm 
trying to learn how MDK does everything via gui.

Every time I boot my computer (whether as root or a normal user) my USB mouse 
doesn't work. I have to use TAB and cursor keys and ENTER to select a generic 
ps2 mouse then it works and I can select generic USB mouse.
I tried editting /etc/X11/XF86Config and putting in /dev/input/mice but that 
doesn't help. Every time I exit and come back I have to set the mouse up 
again.

#2: I'm guessing I can only set my default browser as root? Firefox asks me 
every time I start up. I would have thought it'd save it somewhere each user 
has access to so everyone can have their own default browser.

#3: Log on/off
I know where to enable this feature for EVERYONE in MCC, but if I start MCC as 
root or log onto it and enter the root password from a normal user account, 
it won't save it for future use. I have to do it every time.
Randomly (it seems) I get the dragon log on/off menu. Most of the time even if 
I set it in MCC the only option I get is LOG OFF. From that menu I can select 
REBOOT or HALT.
If I select REBOOT, I get a small blank window in the middle of the screen 
with two buttons (CANCEL and REBOOT iirc). Hitting REBOOT many times does 
nothing, but HALT will work.

Kaffeine doesn't seem to like playing normal DVDs. I'm guessing this is just 
an encryption problem? It always errors out with the plugin not found error. 
AVI's on the hard drive work fine tho.

Logging onto a Windows share. I can connect to my globally shared drive when I 
boot up, but I don't know how to configure MDK to mount my 'home drive' a'la 
the NETLOGON.BAT script which runs if I boot into Windows. Should I just 
fstab this mount or something?

Thanks.
