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