Anyone know of any books that are reasonably compatible with the Mandrake distribution? I'm looking for something with a lot of breath and/or depth. I've been programming PCs for over 25 years so I'd like to avoid books that are really basic but, would like ones that do cover common problems that cause people to spin their wheels. I ordered a title (Linux-Mandrake 6.0 Unleashed Sams; ISBN: 0672318113) from Amazon that was supposed to be released in October. I called SAMS and this title and another Mandrake title are now pushed out till at least March 2000. I've got the 6.1 Power pack and was able to install the basic OS and KDE (I skipped the network for now) without instructions (left them at home) or major problems. Also, if anyone knows the author, Horst Von Brand, I'm one of those anal guys who likes reading a book from cover to cover with a highlighter to glean everything I can. I would be willing to beta test the book against the 6.1 distribution for him.
