As an aside, it's nice to be able to actually compare these distros and see
strengths and weaknesses, between them. I could never do that with XP.

There's an MDK 10 DVD with Linux Mag for May.
Does anyone know which version of MDK? I'm assuming it's Official, of course.

Absolutely. The help of people on these forums has been most impressive,
though. I've search MDK Bugzilla and haven't really found a bug filed that
fits this problem, so it may not be seen by the developers as a priority.

fficial so close, is this something that Mandrake has acknowledged
and is trying to sort out? I imagine it must be a pretty simple fix, given
MDKMove was fine.

I'm trying to establish if urpmi actually installed the updates that it

Isn't it great that the Linux community can build camps around distros, bad
mouth other distros and talk about how there's is the best and why???
Over in the MS OS community that I just left two weeks ago, there's none of
