I've heard lots of bellyaching on this list about problems with Mandrake 7.0, they seem to be mostly due to Mandrake-specific enhancements that are a little buggy and not kernel related. Is this an accurate representation? I have a new laptop coming (for work) and I am wondering if I should give 7.0 or 6.1 a try. My chipsets for sound and video both require recent releases to work, but that's just X... Is there any reason to avoid Air for a while longer? I have spent lots of time at 'Linux on Laptops' and there is a howto for my machine. The author basically says to get the newest stuff I can because RH 6.1 barely works. Thoughts? Pax.
