Hi

well, after a few days of running 8.1 (as desktop, I still have to test
it as a server) I must say I'm VERY(!!!) impressed. I didn't like 8.0 (actually
this release made me move my servers to debian - it was really unstable
and a lot of things didn't work or worked badly). (btw, I DON'T want to
open a debian vs. mandrake discussion!!!). now 8.1 works much better and
even seem to take less resources then 8.0. 

2 problems though:

1. evolution (and some other gnome apps) seem to be unstable. whenever I
   go offline in evolution it crashes. the same happens when I'm opening
   an ical attachment. I'm running the same evolution version (0.13) on my
   debian (potato with ximian gnome) and it performs all these tasks
   without a problem. does anybody else experiencing these problems?

2. After I got used to apt-get (being able to access many ftp sites with
   customized debs) I'm trying to do the same with urpmi. is there a way
   now to include contrib on the urpmi database? I still can't find any
   base/hdlist.cz on the contrib directory on the servers. is there a way
   to override this?

Thanks

OT: now that there are new emu10k1 apps, is it possible to play midi's
on SBLive without timidity?
