Hi all,
I just wanted to say that I have purchased 7.2 at wallmart
and the install went perfectly. I did not have one problem
at all. One small question where is the enlightenment
window manager ? I didnt find it. Thank you, Chronos.

Most definately..you need more RAM. At least 64 to run things confortably.

A 500 MHz processor speed should be fine. I didn't think anyone used 32
Megs of Ram anymore. :) In my view, 32 isn't enough for Windoze, Linux or
anything else. I went from 64 to 128 recently and it was a large difference
in speed. Do yourself a favor and get more memory. Regardless of what
Can increasing your video RAM help?

What seems to be the problem with this version...hum?
Should I just go out a buy 7.1 cause that one seems
to be more stable and reliable...etc.
I downloaded the 7.2 iso images and had no problem at all with the install -
I had all kinds of problems with 7.1 - wasn't stable or reliable for me at
all. My specs are:
1Gz Athlon, 384 mgs RAM, 40 gb drive, SBLive! sound, NVidia GEforce 256
video, princeton flatscreen monitor, external 3COM
It's just the usual complaining and bug reports that you hear with every new
release. My install went almost perfectly, and I have had no show stopping
bugs while running or installing 7.2. Remember, you only hear about the
installs that went bad, and not the installs that went off perfectly.

I have just changed over from Corel to Mandrake 7.2. I have had a couple prob
lems with it. Has anyone else felt that it is very slow,
You've got some sort of problem with the installation as linuxconfig
should take only a few seconds to load. It takes only 2 seconds for the
