official. When I went to shut it down, everything did so normally. A
while later, I noticed a light on the laptop was lit and realized that
Mandrake rebooted again so I shut it down a second time. I checked it a

Club members were not the only ones to beta test mandrake 10.0. making

I just discovered that I can use either the USB mouse or the touchpad on
my Compaq Presario 3000. I was looking at harddrake for information
about my wireless network card and noticed that the mouse has an "ALL"
