I don't believe that 8.1 is out yet.
When the *final* release is out, go to www.linux-mandrake.com or

Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
Go to http://.mandrakestore.com
Just a guess but have you tried running X in 16bit?
Is X running in the same video mode as Tuxracer (640x480???)?
Hope it helps,

Hi!
I know this may sound trivial but: How do I enable the joystick? I have an

Nope, more likely it is your chipset. Some KT133 and KT133A chipsets have
a problem about halting/rebooting, especially on FIC AZ11 motherboards,
limited to specific runs. There may be others as well that we don't know
manufacturer but still within the limits of my monitor
(VX700).
