Any Mandrake users here?
« on: May 27, 2004, 06:37:04 PM »
After a long line of other Linux distros, I'm trying Mandrake 10 out.  Does anyone here use it?  I'm trying to find out the best way of installing a recent build of Firefox and Thunderbird 0.6, but the package management system ('control centre') doesn't list it.  I've subscribed to the newbie Mandrake user list, but I'm used to you guys, you're a tad more agreeable :-)

I haven't plucked up the courage to boot Linux again yet :-)

I did use that easy urpmi page, but I still wasn't getting anywhere in installing stuff I wanted.  I'm planning on giving more exact troubleshooting info next time I try it.

I've written a page about it on my website so far, if that's of any use to you? :-)
